Abstract
    Failure reasons of impellers in a pump of an aromatic hydrocarbon extracting system were analyzed by means of microcoulometric detector,spectroscopic methodology,optical microscopy,scanning electron microscope and X ray diffraction.The major reasons for impeller failure were interactive action of coarse microstructure and oxygen corrosion as well as erosion-corrosion.
