Bacterial corrosion of pipelines
Abstract
The terms ‘bacterial corrosion’ and ‘microbiological corrosion’ are used synonymously to describe corrosion that is caused by, or is stimulated by, bacterial action. The fundamental nature of the corrosion is the same as in the more common process involving inorganic agents. It is, therefore, necessary to understand the basic processes of corrosion before the true role of bacteria can be appreciated.
