It was found that OCP shifted to a higher level when the system was inoculated with bacteria and it decreased dramatically when MIC started. Among a series of welding defects golden heat tint was found the most susceptible to MIC. The tubercles over pitting were observed with SEM. Some elements inside of the tubercles were analysed with EDXA. Microbiological analysis of a corroded and a non-corroded sample revealed no significant difference between them with the exception of the number of the manganeseoxidising bacteria.展开更多
