WATCH OUT FOR Bacterial Corrosion in the Refinery

Abstract

Bacterial action often constitutes a major cause of corrosion in petroleum refineries and similar plant. The problem occurs in three major areas: in underground structures, in cooling water systems and in storage facilities for both crude and refined petroleum products. What are the factors upon which bacterial corrosion depends and what are the remedies?
