Combatting MIC in Industrial Systems

The challenge of Microbial Induced Corrosion (MIC) extends far beyond academic discussions, directly impacting industrial systems worldwide. PBR Laboratories is dedicated to addressing this critical issue with innovative solutions and advanced research.

Understanding MIC in Industrial Settings: MIC, a process where microorganisms such as sulfate-reducing bacteria (Desulfovibrio vulgaris), iron-oxidizing bacteria (Gallionella, Sphaerotilus), and acid-producing bacteria (Acidithiobacillus) cause the deterioration of metals, poses a significant risk to the integrity of industrial infrastructure. This microbial activity can lead to unexpected failures and costly repairs in systems ranging from pipelines to storage tanks.
