Short description Spectacularly rapid corrosion failures have been observed in soil due to microbial action and it is becoming increasingly apparent that most metallic alloys are susceptible to some form of microbiologically influenced corrosion. Using case histories and practical examples, Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion helps engineers and scientists understand the failures of industrial equipment that occur due to corrosion.
