Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion of a Pipeline in a Petrochemical Plant

Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion of a Pipeline in a Petrochemical Plant

This paper investigates a severe microbiologically influenced failure in the elbows of a buried amine pipeline in a petrochemical plant. Pipelines can experience different corrosion mechanisms, including microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). MIC, a form of biodeterioration initiated by micro...
