icrobiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is an
electrrochemical corrosion that can be initiated,
enhanced or even decelarted by the action of certain micro-
organisms, mainly bacteria and their “cousins” Archaea.
Perhaps the most widely known of corrosion-related bacteria
(CRB) to industry is SRB (sulphate reducing bacteria) and there
are still professionals who think SRB are the most important
CRB particularly in pipeline industry. New findings suggest
otherwise:infacttherearesomefifteentypesofbothCRBand
CRA (corrosion related Archaea) that can induce corrosion to
almost all engineering materaisl, metals and non-metals alike.
In addition to being rrather unknown for some industries,
there are several myths surrounding recognitioon and
treatment of MIC too, myths like stainless steels are immune
to MIC or cathodic protection can cure MIC forr good .
In this two-hour training masterclass, Dr. Reza Javaherdashti
will discuss the state-of-the-art of MIC and what is available to
identifyandcureitalongwithsomeprosandconsofeachmethod.
This mastercalss could be very useful for:
• Technical Inspection Professionals
• Corrosion Management Professionals
• Operation and repair Professionals
• Integrity Management Professionals
• Water treatment professionals
• Structural and process Professionals
• HSE /safety Professionals
• Coating and paint /Cathodic protection/Chemical
treatment /Materials Selection Professionals
• Testing and laboratory Professionals
Speaker Biography
Reza Javaherdashti holds a double degree in Materials Science and
Metallurgical Engineering. In addition to being an internationally
renowned expert on microbial corrosion, He has several internationally
referenced books and papers on the subject. He has over 20 years of field
and academic experience as both a consultant and a researcher. He is the
first scientist who has applied Fuzzy logic in prediction the risk of microbial
corrosion successfully. While as an engineer corrosion is his passion., as a
manager he has grown interest in studies related to the cost of corrosion.
He was the first who applied Future Studies to present a Futuristic model
for managers that had corrosion as its integral element.
