ellat1me,
chlorides in systems is a problem. Typically you should have less than 50ppm. But MIC is not chloride corrosion. Chloride Corrosion has to have the presences of chlorides, tensile stress, oxygen and heat. MIC is just typically brackish water at ambient temps sitting in pipe for a few weeks. A micro graph of Chloride corrosion typically looks like lighting bolts. MIC is microbiological animals eating the material. A chief inspector for BP that I worked for, would say, "you can put any ungodly liquid that will kill a human in seconds in 300 series SS, and it will not hurt it, you just can't put water in it, and especially plant utility water". This was after we had a MIC failure.
