Abstract
The eastern section of China's West-east gas transmission project is laid in acidic red soil. NRB are widespread in soils and play an important role in metal corrosion. In this article, the corrosion failure behavior and mechanism of X80 pipeline steel under the action of NRB in simulated acidic soil were studied. It was found that the biofilm of B. subtilis had significant inhibitory on the overall corrosion of X80 steel. Electrochemical results prove that the corrosion rate of the sterile group after 14 days of immersion was about 4.5 times that of the bacterial group. However, the biofilm promotes the formation of local corrosion pits. Confocal laser scanning microscopy images indicate that that the corrosion pit depth of the bacterial group (46.1 μm) was three times that of the bacterial-free group (15.7 μm) after 14 days. The pH of the acidic environment was slightly improved by B. subtilis. XPS results proved that B. subtilis complicates the corrosion products of X80 steel through its nitrate reduction ability and metabolism.

Abstract
Owing to the effects of seawater erosion, dry/wet cycles, dissolved oxygen and microorganisms, the corrosion of steel in marine tidal environments is a serious threat to the safe and stable operation of marine equipment and facilities. Among them, microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) of steel has received increasing attention. Cathodic protection (CP) is frequently used to control the corrosion of offshore steel structures. However, in the presence of microorganisms, implementation of CP and its specific effects remain controversial. In this study, the influence of Pseudomonas sp. on the CP efficiency of Zn sacrificial anodes (ZnSAs) during the tidal corrosion of X80 steel was studied. The results showed that CP efficiency exceeded 92% in an abiotic tidal environment. However, in the biotic tidal environment, Pseudomonas sp. significantly reduced the CP efficiency. Pseudomonas sp. and its biofilm promoted the corrosion of steel under CP, inhibited the formation of a complete calcareous deposit layer, which weakened the CP efficiency of ZnSA in the marine tidal environment.

Abstract
The microstructure evolution and variation of impact toughness in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of X80 pipeline steel with different Nb content under different peak temperatures in the secondary thermal cycle were studied through welding thermal simulation, the Charpy impact test, EBSD analysis, SEM observation, and TEM observation in this study. The results indicate that when the peak temperatures of the second pass were lower than Ac1, both X80 pipeline steels had high impact toughness. For secondary peak temperatures in the range of Ac1 to Ac3, both X80 pipeline steels had the worst impact toughness, mainly due to the formation of massive blocky M-A constituents in chain form on grain boundaries. When the secondary peak temperatures were higher than Ac3, both X80 pipeline steels had excellent impact toughness. Smaller grain size and higher proportions of HAGBs can effectively improve the impact toughness. Meanwhile, high Nb X80 pipeline steel had higher impact absorption energy and smaller dispersion. Adding an appropriate amount of Nb to X80 pipeline steel can ensure the impact toughness of SCCGHAZ and SCGHAZ in welded joints.

Abstract
Microbiologically influenced corrosion of pipeline steel in seawater has long been concerned by scholars all over the world, but there were few reports on the microorganism effect on marine tidal corrosion of steels. In this work, the effect of Pseudomonas sp. on static tidal corrosion of X80 pipeline steel were systematically studied using weight-loss, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), electrochemical measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultra-deep field 3D microscope. The results manifested that after 720 h exposure to the marine tidal environment, the sessile Pseudomonas sp. counts multiplied with the elevation increase. The corrosion style of the steel in the inoculated environment was mainly localized corrosion. As a consequence of the higher bacteria number, the corrosion rate, pit depth and corrosion product thickness collectively enhanced. Pseudomonas sp. significantly accelerated uniform and localized corrosion of the steel in the marine tidal zone, and the acceleration role enhanced with the steel elevation in the tidal zones.

Abstract
The coarse-grain heat-affected zones (CGHAZs) of X80 girth-welded steel pipelines are prone to embrittlement, which has an extremely adverse effect on their structural integrity. In the present work, the fracture behavior of the CGHAZs of X80 girth welds under the conditions of conventional and ultra-low heat input was studied. The fracture toughness of CGHAZs was evaluated using the crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) test at -10 °C, and the fracture behavior mechanism of CGHAZs were clarified by analyzing microstructural characteristics at prefabricated fatigue cracks containing fracture cloud image, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electron back-scatter diffraction (EBSD) figures. The results illustrate that the average fracture toughness (CTOD) value of the ultra-low heat input CGHAZ is 0.6 mm, and the dispersion of CTOD values is small, while the CTOD value of conventional heat input is only 0.04 mm. The ultra-low heat input makes the high-temperature residence time of the coarse-grained region short, reduces the proportion of prior austenite grain boundaries, and inhibits the formation of strip-like bainite and island-like M-A components. The reduction of these deleterious ductile microstructures increases the plastic reserve and deformation capacity of the CGHAZ.

Abstract
The effect of SRB and applied potential on the stress corrosion sensitivity of X80 pipeline steel was analyzed in high-pH soil simulated solution under different conditions using a slow strain rate tensile test, electrochemical test, and electronic microanalysis. The experimental results showed that X80 pipeline steel has a certain degree of SCC sensitivity in high-pH simulated solution, and the crack growth mode was trans-granular stress corrosion cracking. In a sterile environment, the SCC mechanism of X80 steel was a mixture mechanism of anode dissolution and hydrogen embrittlement at −850 mV potential, while X80 steel had the lowest SCC sensitivity due to the weak effect of AD and HE; after Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) were inoculated, the SCC mechanism of X80 steel was an AD–membrane rupture mechanism at −850 mV potential. The synergistic effect of Cl− and SRB formed an oxygen concentration cell and an acidification microenvironment in the pitting corrosion pit, and this promoted the formation of pitting corrosion which induced crack nucleation, thus significantly improving the SCC sensitivity of X80 steel. The strong cathodic polarization promoted the local corrosion caused by SRB metabolism in the presence of bacteria, whereby the SCC sensitivity in the presence of bacteria was higher than that in sterile conditions under strong cathodic potential.

Abstract
The development of environmentally friendly and sustainable corrosion protection technologies is a longstanding yet difficult problem, especially for the marine environment. The utilization of living biofilms isolated from local environments is an effective strategy for infrastructure protection. In this study, three aerobic marine bacteria, Tenacibaculum mesophilum D-6, Tenacibaculum litoreum W-4, and Bacillus sp. Y-6, with strong biofilm-forming abilities were isolated and evaluated for the corrosion protection of X80 carbon steel. The corrosion inhibitory effect of the bacteria was found to be closely related to their biofilm-forming abilities. This conclusion was corroborated by biofilm characterization, electrochemical tests, weight loss analysis, and corrosion product analysis. Moreover, secreted extracellular polymeric substances were identified to play significant roles in corrosion inhibition. Herein, we proposed a novel, eco-friendly, and cost-effective method for corrosion protection of carbon steels in the marine environment, providing guiding principles for identifying corrosion inhibitory bacteria from the local marine environment.

Abstract
With the development of electrified railways and high-voltage transmission lines, it is often inevitable that buried metal structures are subjected to interference from the alternating current (AC) induced by the neighboring power facilities. Commonly found in soil, sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) have the capability to accelerate metal corrosion. In this paper, with electrochemical methods, surface analysis techniques, and weight-loss test, the influence of AC and SRB on the X80 steel corrosion behavior was explored in coastal saline soil. The results revealed that the 100 A m-2 AC inhibited the growth of the sessile and planktonic SRB cell. Under the action of 100 A m-2 AC, the metabolic activity of viable bacteria was enhanced, and the process of extracellular electron transfer was accelerated. When both AC and SRB were introduced, the maximum pit depth (76.2 μm) increased significantly to be 15 times higher than in the control condition (4.9 μm). Both SRB and AC played a role in enhancing corrosion. The corrosion rate of the AC-influenced specimen was far higher than that of the SRB-influenced specimen, while SRB and AC produced a synergistic effect on the enhanced corrosion of the specimen.

Abstract
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is one of the reasons leading to the service failure of pipelines buried in the soil. The effects of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) on steel corrosion without organic carbon are not clear. In this work, SRB cells were enriched in the simulated soil solution, aiming to study SRB corrosion behavior without organic carbon source using weight loss, electrochemical measurements, and surface analysis. Effects of DO on SRB corrosion were also studied. Results indicate that SRB can survive after 14 days of incubation without organic carbon source, but approximately 90% SRB have died. SRB without organic carbon source could inhibit the uniform corrosion but enhance the pitting corrosion compared with the control specimen. The corrosion rate of the control calculated from weight loss is highest with a value of (0.081 ± 0.013) mm/y. The highest localized corrosion rate of (0.306 ± 0.006) mm/y is obtained with an initial SRB count of 107 cells/mL. The presence of DO influences the steel corrosion process. Oxygen corrosion dominates for the specimens in the absence and presence of SRB with an initial count of 103 cells/mL, while SRB MIC is primary for the specimens with high SRB counts.

Abstract
The biofilm of Bacillus cereus on the surface of X80 pipeline steel was investigated from forming to shedding. Based on the observed biofilm morphology and pit analysis, it was found that B. cereus biofilm could stimulate X80 pipeline steel pitting corrosion, which was attributed to the nitrate reduction of bacteria beneath the biofilm. Electrochemical measurements and general corrosion rate results showed that B. cereus biofilm can better accelerate X80 pipeline steel corrosion compared to sterile solutions. Interestingly, the results also showed that thick biofilms had a slight tendency to inhibit the general corrosion process compared with its formation and exfoliation, which was confirmed by scanning Kelvin probe. The corrosion rate of X80 pipeline steel in artificial Beijing soil is closely related to the state of the biofilm, and nitrate reducing bacteria accelerates the occurrence of pits. The corresponding corrosion mechanisms are proposed.

Abstract
In an acidic red soil environment, the corrosion mechanism of X80 steel may be closely related to the pH value and oxygen content, but it has not yet formed a systematic understanding. In this paper, the coupling effects of pH and dissolved oxygen on the corrosion behavior and mechanism of X80 steel in an acidic soil simulated solution were further analyzed by electrochemical methods and three-dimensional video microscope. Results showed that the hydrogen reduction reaction was almost the only cathode process in the anoxic and low pH system, and small and dense pits were present on the electrode surface. pH value increased, the pits decreased, but the size of pits increased. In the oxygen-adequate system, oxygen-consuming (OC) corrosion preferentially occurred, and a protective corrosion product layer (including FeOOH, Fe3O4, etc.) might be formed accordingly, but the proportion of hydrogen evolution (HE) increased and the product layer had defects at a low pH environment. The specific corrosion mechanism of X80 steel in an acidic soil simulated solution is described in the relevant models.

Abstract
AC corrosion has been considere d as a threat to the corrosion of buried pipelines. Effects of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and alternating current (AC) on corrosion of X80 pipeline steel in soil-extract solution were investigated by electrochemical and surface analysis techniques. AC current can inhibit the growth of planktonic and sessile SRB. The corrosion current density of steel with 10 mA/cm2 AC current is about nine times bigger than that without AC current. Corrosion morphology changes from small pitting to large pitting holes with increasing AC current density. Corrosion of steel with SRB and AC current is controlled by both active dissolution of iron and film degradation.

Abstract
The corrosion of X80 pipeline steel in the presence of Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) was studied through electrochemical and surface analyses and live/dead staining. Scanning electron microscopy and live/dead straining results showed that a number of B. cereus adhered to the X80 steel. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that B. cereus could accelerate the corrosion of X80 steel. In addition, surface morphology observations indicated that B. cereus could accelerate pitting corrosion in X80 steel. The depth of the largest pits due to B. cereus was approximately 11.23μm. Many pits were found on the U-shaped bents and cracks formed under stress after 60days of immersion in the presence of B. cereus. These indicate that pitting corrosion can be accelerated by B. cereus. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results revealed that NH4+ existed on the surface of X80 steel. B. cereus is a type of nitrate-reducing bacteria and hence the corrosion mechanism of B. cereus may involve nitrate reduction on the X80 steel.
