Marine sulfate - reducing bacteria cause serious corrosion of iron under electroconductive biogenic mineral crust

Iron (Fe°) corrosion in anoxic environments (e.g. inside pipelines), a process entailing considerable economic costs, is largely influenced by microorganisms, in particular sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB). The process is characterized by formation of black crusts and metal pitting. The mechanism is...
