Abstract:Internal corrosion of wet gas pipelines usually occurs in thin layers of water condensate with dissolved gases such as CO 2 , where a bacterial community can grow to cause microbiological corrosion. In this work, surface films generated during corrosion of an X52 pipeline steel under a CO 2 -containing thin electrolyte layer (TEL) in the absence and presence of Desulfovibrio vulgaris bacteria were characterised by atomic force microscopy. The film generated in the Desulfovibrio vulgaris-containing TEL, i.e. a … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
