Corrosion Behavior of AISI 1045 Steel in Seawater in the Presence of Flavobacterium sp.

ABSTRACT: A systematic comparison study was carried out to investigate the effect of Flavobacterium sp. on AISI 1045 steel corrosion by weight loss, fluorescence microscopy (FM), surface analysis, cell count, pH measure, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and polarization curves. The impedances were considerably increased by Flavobacterium sp. between 1 and 7 day exposure and after 30 day exposure but considerably decreased by Flavobacterium sp. after 15 and 21 day exposure, which were supported by the Icorr results and the weight loss data. Furthermore, the biofilm was formed on the coupons. The pH values were considerably decreased by Flavobacterium sp. after 15 and 21 day exposure. The results proved that Flavobacterium sp. decreased the corrosion rates between 1 and 7 day exposure and after 30 day exposure and increased the corrosion rates between 15 and 21 day exposure, which could be ascribed to the protective biofilm and the secreted corrosive acid, respectively. In addition, Flavobacterium sp. considerably increased the pit numbers, the maximum pit depths, and the corresponding widths and considerably decreased the Epit values. Importantly, the coverage and the heterogeneity of the biofilm were positively correlated with the increases in the maximum pit depths and the corresponding widths and the decreases in the Epit values by Flavobacterium sp. The results demonstrated that Flavobacterium sp. increased the pitting corrosion, which could involve the heterogeneous biofilm cover.

Project description:Present work investigated the role of five different bacteria species as a corrosion inducer as well as corrosion inhibitor with carbon steel (CS). We observed the ability of different bacteria species on the metal surface attachment, biofilm formation, and determined Peroxidase, Catalase enzyme activity in the detached biofilm from the CS surface. We found that each strain has diverse conduct for surface attachment like DS1 3.3, DS2 2.5, DS3 4.3, DS4 4.0, and DS5 4.71 log cfu/cm2 and for biofilm 8.3 log cfu/cm2. The enzyme Peroxidase, Catalase was found in huge concentration inside the biofilm Peroxidase was maximum for DS4 36.0 U/ml and least for DS3 19.54 U/ml. Whereas, Catalase was highest for DS4, DS5 70.14 U/ml and least 57.2 U/ml for DS2. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was conducted to examine the biofilm and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were utilized to observe corrosion in the presence of bacteria. The electrochemical results confirmed that DS1, DS3, DS4, and DS5 strains have statistically significant MIC-factors (Microbially Influenced Corrosion) of 5.46, 8.51, 2.36, and 1.04, while DS2 protective effect factor of 0.89. Weight reduction results with carbon steel likewise supports that corrosion was initiated by DS1 and DS3, while DS2 and DS5 have no any impact though with DS4 we watched less weight reduction however assumed no role in the corrosion. We established the relation of Peroxidase enzyme activity of the isolates. DS1, DS3 and having Peroxidase in the range 22.18, 19.54 U/ml which induce the corrosion whereas DS2 and DS5 having 28.57 and 27.0 U/ml has no any effect and DS4 36 U/ml has inhibitory effect, increasing concentration inhibiting the corrosion. For Catalase DS1, DS3 have 67.28, 61.57 U/ml which induce corrosion while DS2 and DS5 57.71 and 59.14 U/ml also has no effect whereas DS4 70.14 U/ml can inhibit corrosion. Results clearly express that in a specific range both enzymes can induce the corrosion. Our goals are to pursuit and locate the potential role of the enzyme in corrosion induction and inhibition. There is still further work is proceeded for the more profound perception.
