Iron corrosion by novel anaerobic microorganisms

Article Abstract:

Corrosion of iron presents a serious economic problem and the sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are supposed to act upon iron primarily by produced hydrogen sulphide and cathodic hydrogen. The corrosive types of SRB obtained via an isolation approach with metallic iron are discussed.

A pore view of corrosion

Article Abstract:

Issues are presented concerning the corrosion of a copper-gold alloy into a porous sponge. A model which has been proposed for the quantitative prediction of the sponge's final structure is discussed.

Anaerobic oxidation of short-chain hydrocarbons by marine sulphate-reducing bacteria

Article Abstract:

The enrichment of sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) with capability to anaeorobically degrade hydrocarbons with shorter chain lengths from marine hydrocarbon seep areas are reported.
