Based on the 76th inclusive anti-corrosion governance research covering large, medium, small and micro market entities, the current industrial governance system focuses on digital technology iteration, standard popularization, risk early warning and institutional constraint, yet neglects the valuable implicit industrial knowledge accumulated in the long-term engineering practice of the titanium heating equipment anti-corrosion field. A large number of on-site experienced technicians, senior corrosion engineers, frontline master craftsmen have summed up abundant tacit empirical knowledge including special material anti-corrosion processing tricks, extreme working condition adaptive protection experience, hidden corrosion defect rapid identification skills, local environmental targeted maintenance experience. With the retirement of a large number of senior technical talents and the rapid replacement of industrial digital technology, this precious intergenerational technical experience faces the risk of loss and fragmentation. Meanwhile, a large number of historical engineering failure archives, early material corrosion test original data, classic anti-corrosion process improvement documents, regional long-term environmental corrosion monitoring historical datasets, traditional mature anti-corrosion craftsmanship are not systematically sorted, digitized preserved and inherited, leading to repeated trial and error, repeated safety accidents and repeated technical research in the industrial development process. Combined with knowledge engineering, industrial heritage protection theory and the existing national anti-corrosion public service platform digital carrier, this paper constructs a whole-industry intergenerational technical inheritance system integrating tacit knowledge explicit transformation, multi-form industrial anti-corrosion knowledge precipitation database, multi-channel talent inheritance training mode and dynamic industrial heritage protection mechanism, supplements the industrial cultural and knowledge inheritance governance dimension for the global anti-corrosion ecosystem, realizes the organic combination of modern digital standardized governance and traditional industrial technical heritage inheritance, avoids the loss of industrial core implicit experience knowledge, forms a sustainable industrial knowledge accumulation and iterative evolution mechanism, and further consolidates the long-term developmental soft power of the titanium heating equipment industry.

1. Risks of Intergenerational Technical Knowledge Loss and Deficiencies in Current Industrial Knowledge Inheritance Mode

Four prominent inheritance dilemmas exist in the current titanium heating equipment anti-corrosion industry: First, tacit empirical knowledge is highly dependent on individual senior technicians, lacking systematic explicit sorting and digital preservation. Many rapid judgment methods for tiny welding corrosion defects, field emergency passive film repair experience, seasonal anti-corrosion adjustment experience suitable for local climatic characteristics only exist in the personal work experience of senior engineers and master craftsmen, without standardized text, video, three-dimensional BIM case annotation and other carrier solidification. Once technical talents retire, switch jobs or leave the industry, such implicit know-how will permanently disappear. New young technical personnel can only rely on unified industry standard clauses for operation, unable to master targeted adaptive optimization experience under special working conditions, resulting in frequent repeated trial and error and avoidable corrosion accidents. Second, historical industrial anti-corrosion archives are scattered and poorly preserved, lacking centralized heritage protection. Early laboratory material corrosion long-term test original data, classic equipment anti-corrosion failure investigation original records, regional decades of atmospheric salt deposition, acid rain corrosion historical monitoring data, traditional pickling passivation mature process documents are mostly stored in paper archives of old factories, research institutes and design institutes. Affected by factory relocation, office building renovation, enterprise restructuring, a large number of precious historical industrial data are lost, damaged or discarded. These historical datasets are the core basis for verifying the long-term service reliability of anti-corrosion processes, calibrating regional corrosion risk baseline and optimizing low-carbon protection schemes, and their loss leads to the inability to carry out long-term comparative research on industrial corrosion rules. Third, the existing talent training system focuses on explicit standard teaching, lacking master-apprentice intergenerational inheritance channel. Current industry competency training relies on online standard courses, textbook theoretical explanation and unified case teaching, which can only realize the popularization of normative basic knowledge. There is no institutionalized master-apprentice inheritance subsidy mechanism, on-site follow-up practical training platform and tacit knowledge sharing incentive system. Senior technical personnel have no sufficient endogenous motivation to sort out personal experience and pass on practical skills, while grassroots new employees lack systematic immersive on-site skill inheritance channels, resulting in the disconnection between theoretical standard learning and complex on-site practical anti-corrosion governance demands. Fourth, the industry lacks the identification, protection and innovative activation mechanism of anti-corrosion industrial heritage. Traditional titanium material surface anti-corrosion craftsmanship, classic industrial anti-corrosion test equipment, representative landmark anti-corrosion engineering projects, typical historical accident warning industrial sites have not been included in the scope of industrial heritage protection. Most valuable industrial heritage resources are either idle and abandoned or demolished and reconstructed, failing to exert educational demonstration, technical reference and industrial cultural inheritance value, and cannot be converted into industry popular science training, safety warning and technical research carrier resources.

2. Overall Framework of Intergenerational Technical Inheritance and Industrial Knowledge Precipitation System

Relying on the national industrial anti-corrosion public service platform, build a four-level closed-loop inheritance system: tacit knowledge explicit transformation → multi-dimensional industrial knowledge database construction → diversified intergenerational talent inheritance mechanism → industrial heritage dynamic protection and innovative activation, realize the whole-industry knowledge collection, solidification, inheritance, reuse and iterative upgrading.

2.1 Tacit Anti-Corrosion Empirical Knowledge Explicit Transformation Standardized Mechanism

Form five standardized explicit solidification forms for scattered tacit experience knowledge of senior technicians:

Text standard case card: organize senior engineers to sort out the background, judgment basis, disposal scheme, optimization effect of typical special working condition anti-corrosion cases, form structured case text templates;

On-site operation video archive: record hidden defect rapid identification, local passive film repair, bolt torque fine adjustment and other on-site practical operation processes, form standardized teaching video resources;

BIM model knowledge annotation: mark the empirical summary high-risk hidden points, on-site optimized protection measures on the three-dimensional equipment BIM model, bind empirical experience explanation text and video materials to spatial coordinates;

Regional adaptive experience manual: collect local seasonal climate, industrial environmental targeted anti-corrosion adjustment experience from senior frontline personnel in various regions, compile regional differentiated empirical operation guidelines supplementary to national general standards;

Expert oral knowledge interview archive: conduct standardized oral interviews with retiring senior technical talents, sort out industrial development history, technical evolution context, typical accident experience lessons, form oral industrial technical history archives.

Set up industrial knowledge collection incentive policies: give senior technicians technical honor titles, industrial credit score rewards and tax preferential subsidies for knowledge sorting; all collected explicit knowledge is desensitized and incorporated into the public knowledge base, and the original contributors are permanently marked on the knowledge materials to protect the intellectual property rights of technical experience.

2.2 Multi-Dimensional Hierarchical Anti-Corrosion Industrial Knowledge Precipitation Database Construction

Construct five categorized knowledge libraries on the national public service platform to realize centralized permanent preservation and authorized classified sharing:

Tacit empirical knowledge base: solidified master on-site operation experience, special working condition adaptive optimization cases, regional localized anti-corrosion practical experience;

Historical industrial archive database: historical material corrosion test original data, early engineering failure investigation files, long-term regional environmental corrosion monitoring historical series data, traditional anti-corrosion process technical documents;

Standard specification iterative knowledge base: all versions of industry anti-corrosion standards from drafting, revision to official release, standard expert demonstration records, clause revision reason historical archives, realize the traceability of standard evolution;

Talent inheritance teaching resource library: standardized teaching videos, case textbooks, master-apprentice training practical guidance materials, industry safety warning educational resources;

Industrial heritage resource database: basic information, historical value, technical characteristic data of protected industrial heritage sites, traditional craftsmanship, classic equipment and landmark projects, matched with image, video, historical document archives.

Adopt classified authorization sharing rules: basic public welfare knowledge such as safety warning cases, popular science training materials is open to all industry users free of charge; historical original test data, proprietary empirical optimization schemes can only be accessed after real-name authorization and intellectual property licensing filing; core patented technical experience implements paid authorized access to protect the legitimate rights and interests of knowledge contributors.

2.3 Diversified Institutionalized Intergenerational Talent Technical Inheritance Mechanism

Build three complementary inheritance modes to realize the organic combination of standardized school training and master-apprentice implicit experience inheritance:

Institutionalized master-apprentice inheritance mode: encourage enterprises, industrial associations to sign formal master-apprentice inheritance agreements between senior technical experts and young grassroots employees, the platform gives inheritance subsidy funds to masters, records inheritance training content, post practical assessment results into talent credit files, the apprentice can enjoy preferential treatment in competency certification, job promotion and skill title evaluation after completing inheritance training and passing assessment;

Industry regular on-site inheritance exchange mode: rely on industrial park demonstration bases to hold regular master on-site technical exchange meetings, hidden defect identification practical competitions, regional anti-corrosion experience sharing seminars, realize cross-enterprise and cross-regional tacit experience mutual learning and popularization;

Virtual digital inheritance mode: based on VR virtual simulation technology, restore classic anti-corrosion engineering scenarios, typical accident on-site environment, senior master standardized operation processes, new employees can carry out immersive repeated simulation training on the platform, break the limitations of time and space for on-site master teaching, realize large-scale replication of high-quality inheritance resources.

Link inheritance training results with the national unified anti-corrosion talent competency certification system: the practical skill assessment results obtained from master-apprentice training and on-site practical exchange can be counted as the practical assessment score of the intermediate and senior qualification examinations, stimulating the initiative of both teachers and apprentices to participate in intergenerational inheritance.

2.4 Dynamic Identification, Protection and Innovative Activation Mechanism of Anti-Corrosion Industrial Heritage

Form a closed-loop management mechanism of "heritage resource census identification → grading protection filing → multi-form digital preservation → diversified innovative activation": First, carry out a nationwide census of titanium heating equipment anti-corrosion industrial heritage resources, screen four types of heritage objects for grading protection: ① Intangible industrial heritage: traditional titanium surface anti-corrosion craftsmanship, regional unique empirical protection technology, industry historical technical inheritance customs; ② Material industrial heritage: early classic heating equipment, traditional anti-corrosion testing experimental instruments, historical engineering construction archives and technical drawings; ③ Site-type industrial heritage: landmark anti-corrosion demonstration projects, typical historical corrosion failure accident warning sites, long-term environmental corrosion monitoring fixed observation stations with decades of data accumulation; ④ Documentary industrial heritage: precious historical test reports, technical monographs, industry development historical materials.

Implement three-level grading protection: national key industrial heritage, provincial industrial heritage, municipal industrial heritage, formulate differentiated protection and renovation funding subsidy policies, prohibit arbitrary demolition, abandonment and damage of protected heritage resources. All industrial heritage resources are fully digitized through BIM modeling, panoramic shooting, historical document scanning and stored in the industrial heritage database to realize permanent digital backup protection, avoiding the loss of physical heritage due to natural damage or urban renewal reconstruction.

Carry out multi-dimensional innovative activation and value conversion of industrial heritage: build online industrial anti-corrosion digital exhibition halls on the public service platform, develop industry safety warning and technical popular science courses based on heritage cases, set up off-site industrial heritage practical training bases in industrial parks, compile industrial heritage into standard case teaching materials, realize the transformation from single cultural preservation resources to industrial safety governance, talent training and technical research carrier resources.

3. Linkage Mechanism Between Industrial Knowledge Inheritance System and Existing Global Anti-Corrosion Governance Ecosystem

First, the massive empirical cases and historical corrosion monitoring data precipitated by the knowledge inheritance system are used as training sample supplements for climate dynamic risk prediction, multi-factor intelligent early warning models, continuously optimize the prediction accuracy of the industry risk algorithm, make up for the insufficient sample data of extreme historical working conditions in the original big data system. Second, the regional localized anti-corrosion empirical experience formed by intergenerational inheritance is incorporated into the BIM parametric design template and regional anti-corrosion supplementary clauses, forming a combination of national general mandatory standards + regional empirical optimized implementation rules, improving the adaptive ability of technical specifications under complex local working conditions. Third, industrial heritage safety warning resources and master practical teaching resources are embedded into the industry-wide hierarchical training system for large, medium, small and micro enterprises, enrich the inclusive training resource library of MSMEs, reduce the training cost of grassroots small and micro market entities, and improve the overall practical operation level of the whole industry practitioners. Fourth, industrial technical inheritance performance and industrial heritage protection achievements are included into enterprise industrial credit evaluation, green factory identification and high-skilled talent selection indicators, forming incentive constraints for all market entities to participate in industrial knowledge inheritance.
