Oil Soluble Corrosion Inhibitor on Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion in Diesel Transporting Pipeline
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of oil soluble commercial corrosion inhibitors (OSCI) on the growth of bacteria and its corrosion inhibition efficiency were investigated. Corrosion inhibition efficiency was studied by rotating cage test and the nature of biodegradation of corrosion inhibitor was also analyzed by using FTIR, NMR and GC-MS. This isolate has the capacity to degrade the aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon present in the corrosion inhibitors. The degraded products of corrosion inhibitors and bacterial activity determine the electrochemical behaviour of API 5LX steel. The influence of bacterial activity on degradation of corrosion inhibitor and its influence on corrosion of API 5LX have been evaluated by employing weight loss techniques and electrochemical studies. The present study also emphasizes the importance of evaluation of oil soluble corrosion inhibitor in stagnant model (flow loop test) and discusses the demerits of the oil soluble corrosion inhibitors in petroleum product pipeline.

Microbiologically influenced corrosion in petroleum product pipelines--a review.
Microbiologically influenced corrosion is responsible for most of the internal corrosion problems in oil transportation pipelines and storage tanks. One problematic area in treating gas lines is the occurrence of the stratification of water in the line. Under these conditions, corrosion inhibitors do not come into contact properly and oil and inhibitors undergo degradation. The role of bacteria...

A mini-flowloop was developed to study CO2 corrosion and corrosion/erosion interactions, and to assess the effectiveness of inhibitors under conditions that simulate multi-phase pipelines. The miniflowloop was used to study the effect of testing time, steel chemistry, velocity, temperature, fluid chemistry, sand and inhibitors on corrosion rates. The measured corrosion rates in inhibited and un...

متن کاملEffects of Mass Transfer and Flow Conditions on SRB Corrosion of Mild Steel
Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) is a growing problem in the oil and gas industry resulting in huge financial losses. Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) are often the culprits although many other microorganisms can also be directly or indirectly involved. From the bioprocess engineering angle, mass transfer and flow conditions are very important in SRB biofilm formation and MIC corrosi...
