Research Progress in Microbial Corrosion of Aviation Fuel System

Abstract

Microbiological corrosion is a serious problem commonly existing in various industrial environments at present，which has a wide range of influence and great harm，but the effect of the control measures currently used is not obvious.In this paper，starting from common microbial corrosion phenomena and against the background of the corrosion of metal materials by microorganisms in the aviation fuel system，the common species of microorganisms in the aviation fuel system were introduced，and the effects of these microorganisms on the corrosion behavior of aviation materials were reviewed.Besides，the corrosion mechanism of common microorganisms on other metal materials was also reviewed to provide effective reference for the research on the mechanism of microbial corrosion in different environments and the exploration of new and efficient microbial corrosion prevention measures.
