Burning question: Are there sustainable strategies to prevent microbial metal corrosion?
Abstract The global economic burden of microbial corrosion of metals is enormous. Microbial corrosion of iron‐containing metals is most extensive under anaerobic conditions. Microbes form biofilms on metal surfaces and can directly extract electrons derived from the oxidation of Fe0 to Fe2+ to suppo...
