This book provides fundamental background for understanding the interdisciplinary roles of microbiology, metallurgy and electrochemistry as they relate to microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). Methods by which MIC can be detected and monitored are discussed, as well as its prevention. How welding, heat treatment, and other metallurgical processes and variables affect corrosion resistance are also examined.
