Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) describes the largely negative influence that a microorganism can have on a material, with sometimes severe consequences for humans, nature, and the economy. Although the problem of MIC has been known for decades, work on this topic has been fragmented and isolated; interdisciplinarity is the exception rather than the rule. This book offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary investigation of the interaction between materials science and microbiology to find solutions to cope with adverse effects of MIC. It includes the current state of the field, advances in technologies, and guidance for the future to address remaining challenges.
• Addresses the latest findings, methodologies, standards, gaps, and potential improvements.
• Highlights current barriers that need to be overcome and offers solutions to situations not yet found in the literature.
• Explores a variety of sectors affected by MIC.
• Provides guidance on lab-to-field and field-to-lab knowledge transfer to design sustainable solutions.
Written by and aimed at an interdisciplinary audience, this work serves as an essential reference for readers across the materials, chemical, environmental, energy, and related engineering fields as well as microbiologists and biotechnologists seeking to mitigate the negative impact of MIC on industry and livelihoods.

Andrea Koerdt is Senior Scientist and project leader of the Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) project at Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM), Germany. Since 2016 she has been conducting research at BAM on corrosive methanogenic archaea and sulfate reducing bacteria. She coordinates a team of scientists on MIC and collaborates with industrial and academic partners. She received her PhD from the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology. Judit Knisz is Senior Research Scientist at the Faculty of Water Sciences, Ludovika University of Public Service, Hungary, where she leads the Environmental Microbiology Research Group. Her research focuses on microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) in drinking water and industrial cooling water systems, applying molecular and microbiological methods and advocating the multiple lines of evidence (MLOE) approach to improve diagnostics and mitigation. She holds a PhD in Biology from the University of Pécs, Hungary. Scott Wade joined Swinburne University of Technology as an Associate Professor in 2009. He was awarded a PhD from Victoria University of Technology in 2001 for research on optical fibre based temperature sensors. Prior to joining Swinburne University he held research positions at a number of universities in the UK and Australia where he worked on applied research including the development of sensing techniques and corrosion studies. He is leading a research team investigating various aspects of corrosion, including microbiologically influenced corrosion, accelerated low water corrosion and corrosion sensing. Elisabete Silva is Assistant Researcher at the BioSystems & Integrative Sciences Institute (BIOISI) and an invited Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon. She completed her PhD in Chemical Engineering in December 2009 at the University of Lisbon/Instituto Superior Técnico (IST).
