Rane D, Kerkar S, Ramanan SR, Kowshik M. Superwettable surfaces and factors impacting microbial adherence in microbiologically-influenced corrosion: a review. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 40:98. [PMID: 38353843 DOI: 10.1007/s11274-024-03886-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024]
Abstract
Microbiologically-influenced corrosion (MIC) is a common operational hazard to many industrial processes. The focus of this review lies on microbial corrosion in the maritime industry. Microbial metal attachment and colonization are the critical steps in MIC initiation. We have outlined the crucial factors influencing corrosion caused by microorganism sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), where its adherence on the metal surface leads to Direct Electron Transfer (DET)-MIC. This review thus aims to summarize the recent progress and the lacunae in mitigation of MIC. We further highlight the susceptibility of stainless steel grades to SRB pitting corrosion and have included recent developments in understanding the quorum sensing mechanisms in SRB, which governs the proliferation process of the microbial community. There is a paucity of literature on the utilization of anti-quorum sensing molecules against SRB, indicating that the area of study is in its nascent stage of development. Furthermore, microbial adherence to metal is significantly impacted by surface chemistry and topography. Thus, we have reviewed the application of super wettable surfaces such as superhydrophobic, superhydrophilic, and slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces as "anti-corrosion coatings" in preventing adhesion of SRB, providing a potential avenue for the development of practical and feasible solutions in the prevention of MIC. The emerging field of super wettable surfaces holds significant potential for advancing efficient and practical MIC prevention techniques.

Abstract
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a phenomenon of increasing concern that affects various materials and sectors of society. MIC describes the effects, often negative, that a material can experience due to the presence of microorganisms. Unfortunately, although several research groups and industrial actors worldwide have already addressed MIC, discussions are fragmented, while information sharing and willingness to reach out to other disciplines are limited. A truly interdisciplinary approach, which would be logical for this material/biology/chemistry-related challenge, is rarely taken. In this review, we highlight critical non-biological aspects of MIC that can sometimes be overlooked by microbiologists working on MIC but are highly relevant for an overall understanding of this phenomenon. Here, we identify gaps, methods, and approaches to help solve MIC-related challenges, with an emphasis on the MIC of metals. We also discuss the application of existing tools and approaches for managing MIC and propose ideas to promote an improved understanding of MIC. Furthermore, we highlight areas where the insights and expertise of microbiologists are needed to help progress this field.

Effect of alloying element content on anaerobic microbiologically influenced corrosion sensitivity of stainless steels in enriched artificial seawater. Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 150:108367. [PMID: 36621048 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2023.108367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Revised: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
Stainless steels (SS) are not immune to microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) especially in the presence of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). It is necessary to study the influence of alloying elements on the MIC. SRB MIC behaviors of four stainless steels (2205 SS, 316L SS, 304 SS, and 410 SS), with different alloying element compositions were compared after 14 days of incubation at 37°C in enriched artificial seawater inoculated with Desulfovibrio sp. The sessile cell sequence was 410 SS > 316L SS > 304 SS > 2205 SS, inversely proportional to Cr content. The uniform corrosion rate (based on weight loss) sequence was 410 SS > 304 SS > 316L SS > 2205 SS, which matches the pitting resistance equivalent number (PREN) sequence inversely. 410 SS with the lowest Cr and Mo contents suffered the most severe pitting, with pit depth of 35 μm and weight loss of 0.75 mg/cm2 (0.91 mm/a pitting rate and 25 μm/a uniform corrosion rate). The other three stainless steels with higher Cr and Mo contents suffered only metastable pits. The semiconductor characteristics and the re-passivation abilities of the passive films were found to be affected by Cr and Mo contents.

Abstract
Low-alloy, high-strength structural steel AISI 8630 is exposed to severe microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) in its application environment. To address this issue, we independently designed and developed an AISI 8630 steel containing 0.4 wt% Cu (Cu-AISI 8630) to exploit the Cu antimicrobial effect. The corrosion behavior of two steels in the presence of marine Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm was explored by analyzing weight loss, electrochemical tests, SEM images, corrosion pit dimensions, and corrosion products. The electrochemical test results showed an increase in Rp and a significant positive shift in Ecorr for Cu-AISI 8630 steel compared to AISI 8630 steel during the immersion cycles. A comparison of the pit morphology of AISI 8630 steel and Cu-AISI 8630 steel after 14 days showed that the maximum MIC pit depth was significantly reduced in the latter compared to the former (3.65 μm vs 9.47 μm). The XPS results showed that protective Cu2O and CuO layers were formed on the surface of Cu-AISI 8630 steel. The experimental results show that Cu improves the MIC resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms significantly.

Abstract
The presence and activities of microorganisms on metal surfaces can affect corrosion. Microbial communities after such corrosion incidents have been frequently analyzed, but little is known about the dynamics of microbial communities in biofilms on different types of stainless steels, such as austenitic, martensitic, and duplex stainless steels. Here, we conducted immersion experiments on 10 types of stainless steels in a freshwater environment, where microbiologically influenced corrosion was observed. During 22-month of immersion, severe localized corrosions were observed only on martensitic S40300 stainless steel. Microbial community analysis showed notable differences between non-corroded and corroded stainless steels. On the surfaces of non-corroded stainless steels, microbial communities were slowly altered and diversity decreased over time; in particular, relative abundance of Nitrospira sp. notably increased. Whereas microbial communities in corrosion products on corroded stainless steels showed low diversity; in particular, the family Beggiatoaceae bacteria, iron-oxidizing bacteria, and Candidatus Tenderia sp. were enriched. Furthermore, sulfur enrichment during localized corrosion was observed. Since there was no enrichment of sulfate-reducing bacteria, the sulfur enrichment may be derived from the presence of family Beggiatoaceae bacteria with intracellular sulfur inclusion. Our results demonstrated slow and drastic changes in microbial communities on the healthy and corroded metal surfaces, respectively, and microbial communities on the healthy metal surfaces were not affected by the composition of the stainless steel.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 827:154251.

Abstract
The model electroactive bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens can acquire electrons directly from solid donors including metals and other species. Reports on this physiology concluding that solid donors are the only electron sources were conducted with fumarate believed to serve exclusively as the terminal electron acceptor (TEA). Here, G. sulfurreducens was repeatedly transferred for adaptation within a growth medium containing only fumarate and no other solid or soluble substrate. The resulting evolved strain grew efficiently with either the C4-dicarboxylate fumarate or malate acting simultaneously as electron donor, carbon source, and electron acceptor via disproportionation. Whole-genome sequencing identified 38 mutations including one in the regulator PilR known to repress the expression of the C4-dicarboxylate antiporter DcuB essential to G. sulfurreducens when growing with fumarate. Futhermore, the PilR mutation was identical to the sole mutation previously reported in an evolved G. sulfurreducens grown in a co-culture assumed to derive energy solely from direct interspecies electron transfer, but cultivated with fumarate as the TEA. When cultivating the fumarate-adapted strain in the presence of stainless steel and fumarate, biocorrosion was observed and bacterial growth was accelerated 2.3 times. These results suggest that G. sulfurreducens can conserve energy concomitantly from C4-dicarboxylate disproportionation and the oxidation of a solid electron donor. This co-metabolic capacity confers an advantage to Geobacter for survival and colonization and explains in part why these microbes are omnipresent in different anaerobic ecosystems.

Abstract
Microbially catalyzed corrosion of metals is a substantial economic concern. Aerobic microbes primarily enhance Fe0 oxidation through indirect mechanisms and their impact appears to be limited compared to anaerobic microbes. Several anaerobic mechanisms are known to accelerate Fe0 oxidation. Microbes can consume H2 abiotically generated from the oxidation of Fe0. Microbial H2 removal makes continued Fe0 oxidation more thermodynamically favorable. Extracellular hydrogenases further accelerate Fe0 oxidation. Organic electron shuttles such as flavins, phenazines, and possibly humic substances may replace H2 as the electron carrier between Fe0 and cells. Direct Fe0-to-microbe electron transfer is also possible. Which of these anaerobic mechanisms predominates in model pure culture isolates is typically poorly documented because of a lack of functional genetic studies. Microbial mechanisms for Fe0 oxidation may also apply to some other metals. An ultimate goal of microbial metal corrosion research is to develop molecular tools to diagnose the occurrence, mechanisms, and rates of metal corrosion to guide the implementation of the most effective mitigation strategies. A systems biology approach that includes innovative isolation and characterization methods, as well as functional genomic investigations, will be required in order to identify the diagnostic features to be gleaned from meta-omic analysis of corroding materials. A better understanding of microbial metal corrosion mechanisms is expected to lead to new corrosion mitigation strategies. The understanding of the corrosion microbiome is clearly in its infancy, but interdisciplinary electrochemical, microbiological, and molecular tools are available to make rapid progress in this field.

Abstract
In this work, the microbial corrosion inside a perforation on an X52 pipeline steel was investigated in wet soil containing sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) by biotesting, electrochemical measurements, including open-circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization, and surface analysis techniques such as 3D topographic imaging, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive x-ray spectrum. Results show that the further corrosion rate of the initial perforation on pipelines is not uniform along its depth direction, and the corrosion kinetics depends on the availability of microorganism such as SRB in the environment. In abiotic environments, the perforation close to the solution side corrodes more rapidly than that at the soil side. However, in SRB-containing environments, the corrosion kinetics is different, where the middle of perforation possesses the greatest corrosion rate, which is attributed to the microbially accelerated corrosion. There are generally more sessile SRB cell counts on the steel near the solution phase than that at the soil side. The corrosion of the perforation could be attributed to the high counts of sessile SRB cells and their starvation effect, making the SRB extract electrons directly from the steel.

Abstract
The corrosion behavior of 2205 DSS in HCl solutions containing sulfide were investigated using mass loss test, electrochemical measurements, scanning Kelvin probe, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results showed that Na2S had significant effect on corrosion behavior of 2205 DSS in dilute HCl solutions. Slight Na2S can prevent the passive film from localized attacking of Cl- in HCl solution with a concentration lower than 0.1 mol/L. However, when the concentration of HCl solution higher than 0.137 mol/L, Na2S addition will tremendously promote corrosion. The intergranular corrosion combined surficial active dissolution of 2205 DSS could happen in HCl + Na2S solution.

Abstract
The utilization of Ag and Cu ions to prevent both microbial corrosion and biofilm formation has recently increased. The emphasis of this study lies on the effects of Ag and Cu ions on the microbial corrosion of 316L stainless steel (SS) induced by Desulfovibrio sp. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization were used to analyze the corrosion behavior. The biofilm formation, corrosion products and Ag and Cu ions on the surfaces were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS) and elemental mapping. Through circuit modeling, EIS results were used to interpret the physicoelectric interactions between the electrode, biofilm and culture interfaces. EIS results indicated that the metabolic activity of Desulfovibrio sp. accelerated the corrosion rate of SS in both conditions with and without ions. However, due to the retardation in the growth of Desulfovibrio sp. in the presence of Ag and Cu ions, significant decrease in corrosion rate was observed in the culture with the ions. In addition, SEM and EIS analyses revealed that the presence of the ions leads to the formation on the SS of a biofilm with different structure and morphology. Elemental analysis with EDS detected mainly sulfide- and phosphorous-based corrosion products on the surfaces.

Abstract
A superhydrophobic coating composed of silver nanoparticles enclosed in multilayered polyelectrolyte films was deposited onto copper with the aim of preventing bacterial adhesion. Observations from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed that the amplified exponential growth of the multilayers could induce distinguishable, hierarchical micro- and nanostructures simultaneously. This growth caused the surface roughness to amplify in a lotus-leaf-like manner. UV/visible spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed the formation of well-dispersed Ag(0) nanoparticles (with sizes from 4-6 nm) in the films. SEM and fluorescence microscope images of the exposed surfaces revealed that the pattern of adhesion and the density of bacterial cells differed depending on the surface energy and the number of Ag(+) ions released during the various immersion time periods. The complementary effects of nanosilver and superhydrophobic coatings can help to effectively reduce bacterial adhesion and the formation of biofilms.

Abstract
To enhance the biocorrosion resistance of stainless steel (SS) and to impart its surface with bactericidal function for inhibiting bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation, well-defined functional polymer brushes were grafted via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) from SS substrates. The trichlorosilane coupling agent, containing the alkyl halide ATRP initiator, was first immobilized on the hydroxylated SS (SS-OH) substrates for surface-initiated ATRP of (2-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA). The tertiary amino groups of covalently immobilized DMAEMA polymer or P(DMAEMA), brushes on the SS substrates were quaternized with benzyl halide to produce the biocidal functionality. Alternatively, covalent coupling of viologen moieties to the tertiary amino groups of P(DMAEMA) brushes on the SS surface resulted in an increase in surface concentration of quaternary ammonium groups, accompanied by substantially enhanced antibacterial and anticorrosion capabilities against Desulfovibrio desulfuricans in anaerobic seawater, as revealed by antibacterial assay and electrochemical studies. With the inherent advantages of high corrosion resistance of SS, and the good antibacterial and anticorrosion capabilities of the viologen-quaternized P(DMAEMA) brushes, the functionalized SS is potentially useful in harsh seawater environments and for desalination plants.
