Micans lectures at Inspecta's process industry days

Karsten Pedersen lectured to 120 meeting participants on corrosion where microorganisms are involved with examples from different industrial systems. Some of the environments in which microbial induced corrosion (MIC) occurs are different types of piping, fire extinguish water systems, corrosion in nuclear power plants, corrosion risks associated with the storage of radioactive waste and the corrosion of bridges, tension cables, tanks, dock sides and structures in tunnels. The best method for preventing the MIC is to make a risk analysis of preventive measures against MIC before construction and manufacturing. If the MIC is already in progress, you can analyze the chemical and physical conditions in the environment, and then develop methods how to minimize microbial activity.

The process industry days is Inspecta's annual seminar for people working on the refinery, in petrochemical or chemical industry, entrepreneur, producer, consultant or in any other way linked to the industry.
