Scale corrosion is the worst type of corrosion compared to other types of corrosion due to the tendency to attack pipes is higher even when the pipes are made of non-metals such as polymers. Scaling can cause technical issues such as equipment and pipe obstruction, as well as significant damage and financial losses.This review focuses and outlines the types of scale corrosion, scale corrosion control methods such as chemical methods and non-chemical methods (preventing scale formation), scale corrosion removal methods, and scale corrosion monitoring processes. Finally, we provide some perspectives effect of CO۲, O۲, and H۲S on scale corrosion.
