The bioelectrochemical, electrochemical, and chemical reactions between X80 steel and microorganisms were investigated comprehensively. The results show that B. licheniformis can accelerate the corrosion of X80 steel substrate in early immersing by two ways: biocatalytic cathodic nitrate reduction and acidification induced by bacterially-secreted acids. However, the corrosion rate of X80 steel decreased after immersing for ca. 1 week in B. licheniformis culture due to iron biomineralization. This work provides direct insights into the mechanism of microbiologically influenced corrosion of carbon steel by the nitrate-reducing bacterium.展开更多

The lowest corrosion rate and iron release, along with more Fe3O4 formation, occurred in DWDSs with O3-BAC-Cl2 compared to those without a BAC filter. It was verified that O3-BAC influenced the bacterial community greatly to promote the relative advantage of nitrate-reducing bacteria(NRB)in DWDSs. Moreover, the advantaged NRB induced active Fe(III) reduction coupled to Fe(II) oxidation, enhancing Fe3O4 formation and inhibiting corrosion. In addition, O3-BAC pretreatment could reduce high-molecular-weight fractions of dissolved organic carbon effectively to promote iron particle aggregation and inhibit further iron release. Our findings indicated that the O3-BAC treatment, besides removing organic pollutants in water, was also a good approach for controlling cast iron corrosion and iron release in DWDSs.展开更多
