The potency of spores and biosurfactant of Bacillus clausii as a new biobased sol-gel coatings for corrosion protection of carbon steel ST 37 in water cooling systems
The structures of water cooling systems are prone to microbially-influenced corrosion (MIC) due to the favorable conditions for microbial growth. Biofilm formation accelerates corrosion, leading to reduced system efficiency, structural damage, and significant financial losses. Encapsulating viable b...
