Abstract

We present the results from an investigation of the physicochemical characteristics of samples taken from the corrosion products and solid deposits formed in the flow paths of geothermal power stations. The investigation was carried out using different methods, among which were an X-ray phase analysis, electronic microscopy, thermal gravimetry, and infrared and Mössbauer spectroscopy.
