“…(5) [20] Microorganisms present in a crevice corrosion system can cause more severe effects as a differential oxygen system is established [34][35][36]. Having two different oxygen concentrations at two locations will cause a difference in electrical potential and consequently produce corrosion currents.…”

“…4). This process, in turn, has some benefit to the erosion-corrosion system; if microorganisms are allowed to build up, thin films will be beneficial in coating the points where erosion occurs, as they are small and localised [36]. This localisation of erosion, in turn, protects the material from the corrosive electrolyte, thus, reducing the problem temporarily to the survival or timescale of the biofilm [46,47].…”

Almost every abiotic surface of a material is readily colonised by bacteria, algae, and fungi, contributing to the degradation processes of materials. Both biocorrosion and microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) refer to the interaction of microbial cells and their metabolic products, such as exopolymeric substances (EPS), with an abiotic surface. Therefore, biofouling and biodeterioration of manufactured goods have economic and environmental ramifications for the user to tackle or remove the issue. While MIC is typically applied to metallic materials, newly developed and evolving materials frequently succumb to the effects of corrosion, resulting in a range of chemical reactions and transport mechanisms occurring in the material. Recent research on biocorrosion and biofouling of conventional and novel materials is discussed in this paper, showcasing the current knowledge regarding microbial and material interactions that contribute to biocorrosion and biofouling, including biofilms, anaerobic and aerobic environments, microbial assault, and the various roles microorganisms’ play. Additionally, we show the latest analytical techniques used to characterise and identify MIC on materials using a borescope, thermal imaging, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron microscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical and epifluorescence microscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry, and chemometrics.

“…This class of Inhibitors are environmentally friendly and are acquired from natural products [50]. The hunt of such corrosion mitigating agents for metals originated in mid of 1900s [51]. The first eco-friendly green inhibitor (Chelidoniummajus) was applied in the 1930s and it showed better performance than chemical inhibitors [52].…”

Corrosion results from the electrochemical reactions between the metal and its existing environment. Corrosion results in severe and expensive damage to a wide spectrum of industries. When microbes are involved in corrosion it is seldom possible to economically evaluate its impact. Microbially influenced corrosion is recognized to cause catastrophic failures contributing to approximately 20% of the annual losses. In many engineering applications, microbially influenced corrosion control is of prime importance. Expensive, toxicity and sometimes, even ineffectiveness of the current chemical strategies to mitigate microbially influenced corrosion have shifted the interest towards eco-friendly inhibitors. The present review discusses microbial induced corrosion in various metals and its inhibition through eco-friendly inhibitors. In addition, the study also reviews the morphological and electrochemical impedance results.

“…However, the injected seawater often brings nutrients and oxidants, such as sulfates, into the reservoir, so that microorganisms can multiply [6][7][8]. In the natural environment, microorganisms can cause pipeline corrosion in different industries, including marine environments [9,10], oil fields [11,12] and industrial water systems [13,14]. They can form biofilms on the surface of pipeline steel, metabolize corrosive media, and cause pipeline corrosion, which is called microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) [15][16][17].…”

Glutaraldehyde (GA) is widely employed as a biocide to control microbiologically influenced corrosion in oil fields and industrial water treatment. It might be corrosive to metal. In this study, the effect of glutaraldehyde on the corrosion behavior of X80 pipeline steel was investigated using electrochemical measurement, weight-loss tests and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The weight-loss and electrochemical data show that GA accelerates the corrosion of samples under aerobic conditions, but just slightly influences the corrosion of steel under anaerobic conditions. The results showed that the glutaraldehyde has a minor effect on the corrosion of steel under anaerobic conditions.
