摘要	Supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) is well known as a promising end-of-pipe technology for treatment of hazardous wastes. Safety is undoubtedly the first concern as the SCWO should be operated under a harsh chemical and physical environment, including high temperature, high pressure, and high corrosive medium and plugging risk. This paper is the first report about a tube explosion incident that encountered during continuous SCWO treatment of industrial sludge. 3D imaging, Scanning Electron Microscope - Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and 3D finite element analysis are used to analyze the incident tube comprehensively. The results indicate that the incident tube was working at a hash corrosive environment of subcritical water and chloride, which leads to all of general, pitting and intergranular corrosions. Of which, the pitting is the most severe one that finally results to perforation. Then, leakage took place. Soon afterwards, the hard inorganic particle from sludge plugged the leaking pore for a second, but immediately split it as a big hole due to the local high pressure around the leaking pore. Finally, explosion occurred. Three lessons are drawn for the future safe design and operation of SCWO, i.e., selecting suitable pressure bearing material, checking regularly, and executing safety regulations.
