Naturally effective inhibition of microbial corrosion on carbon steel by beneficial biofilm in the South China Sea

Microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) of metals exerts a negative effect on the marine environment and causes a great loss of marine facilities. Corrosion prevention in an eco-friendly and sustainable way is a difficult problem to address, especially in the marine environment. In this work, Nocardiopsis dassonville, a corrosive bacteria...

Modification on the chloride binding capacity of alkali activated slag by applying calcium and aluminium containing phases

In this study, a modified alkali activated slag system is designed by introducing additional calcium and aluminum containing phases in the binder, aiming at promote the formation of Friedel's salt (Fs) within the reaction products and therefore achieve a better chloride binding capacity. The effect of calcium and alumina contents on phase...
