Decarburization

Decarburization
For the type of corrosion, see Hydrogen embrittlement.

Decarburization is the process opposite to carburization, namely aimed at decreasing the content of carbon in metals (usually steel). Decarburization occurs when Carbon in the metal reacts with gasses present in the atmosphere. The most common reactions are

\mathrm{C + CO_2 \ \rightleftharpoons \ 2 \ CO \quad}

also called the Boudouard reaction

\mathrm{C + H_2O \ \rightleftharpoons \ CO + H_2}
\mathrm{C + 2 \ H_2 \ \rightleftharpoons \ CH_4}
