Abstract :
The paper summarizes very briefly the methods which the author, in conjunction with an Australian co-operative committee, has developed for investigating and relieving electrolysis conditions. The paper is divided into several parts. In Part 1, mention is made of the fundamental principles underlying electrolysis phenomena. Part 2 deals with the factors influencing the amount of damage in practical cases. In Part 3, field instruments are discussed and, in particular, reference is made to a double-element photographic recorder. Part 4 referes to the more usual methods of mitigation, and Part 5 discusses very broadly some of the economic aspects of mitigation. The paper concludes with a brief list of references.
