Methods for providing corrosion protection to process vessels and corrosion protected process vessels obtained thereby

Abstract

Corrosion protection is provided to an interior surface of a process vessel by welding a metal band to the interior surface of the process vessel while first and second metal overlay sections are joined to the interior surface of the process vessel such that opposed end regions of the first and second overlay sections are adjacent to one another and are positioned over the metal band. A weld line section is formed by welding the opposed end regions of the overly sections to one another and to the metal band. The weld line section is then covered with a metal seal strip which is itself welded to each of the opposed end regions of the overlay sections.
