Abstract

The requirements of impressed current anodes for the protection of underground structures were presented in this paper according to the analysis of working conditions. The characteristics and performance of various anodes such as scrap steel, graphite, high silicon cast iron, magnetite, platinized anode, conductive polymer cable anode and mixed metal oxide anode were reviewed. The development trend of impressed current anodes for underground applications was also discussed.
