Aerobic slime formers

Sulfur bacteria Thiobacillus thiooxidans is an aerobic acid- and corrosion-producing sulfur bacterium. Thiothrix sp. are troublesome aerobic slime formers. The most prolific of the slime- and corrosion-producing sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is the anaerobe Desulfovibrio desulfuricans. Other sulfur bacteria include the anaerobes Beggiatoa sp. and Clostridium migrificans. [Pg.130]

Act as a primary biocide, with equal effectiveness against algae, gramnegative aerobic slime formers, and SRBs. [Pg.226]

Aerobic slime formers (eg., Pseudomonas) Aerobic Produce extracellular polymers referred to as "slime. Slime can prevent oxygen from reaching the material surface. 02 (lower)... [Pg.336]

Aerobic Slime Formers Aerobic slime formers are a diverse group of aerobic bacteria. They are important in managing corrosion mainly because they produce extracellular polymers that make up what is commonly referred to as slime, a natural polymer that is actually a sophisticated network of sticky strands that bind cells to the surface and control what permeates through the deposit. [Pg.415]

Aerobic slime formers. Aerobic shme formers are a diverse group of aerobic bacteria. They are important to corrosion mainly because they produce extracellular polymers that make up what is commonly referred to as slime. This polymer is actually a sophisticated network of sticky strands that bind the cells to the surface and control what permeates through the deposit. The stickiness traps all sorts of particulates that might be floating by, which, in dirty water, can result in the impression that the deposit or mound is an inorganic collection of mud and debris. The slime formers and the sticky polymers that they produce make up the bulk of the distributed slime film or primary film that forms on all materials immersed in water. [Pg.194]

Slime formers Aerobic, capsulated, gram-negative bacilli, Pseudomonas sp. (such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa), Aerobacter sp. (also known as Enterobacter or Klebsiella), Bacillus sp. (such as Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus cereus), Flavobacterium sp., Proteus vulgaris, Serratia sp., and Alcaligenes sp. [Pg.565]

Slime formers. Aerobic or facultative bacteria that produce dense slimes on solid surfaces ean cause plugging and contribute to corrosion by shielding the surfaces from the protective action of... [Pg.183]

Sulfate-reducers require a bacteriocide to obtain a total kill. A moderate number of aerobic species (bacterial or algal slime formers) can be tolerated without serious problems, thus a bacteriostat or... [Pg.184]

Atomic force microscopy was used to quantify pitting corrosion on AISI 304 colonized by either aerobic Pseudomonas or anaerobic Desulfovibrio desulfuricans [97]. The results indicate that SRB exhibited more corrosive properties with deeper pits compared to slime formers such as Pseudomonas. [Pg.759]
