Abstract
The corrosion behavior of Q235B carbon steel is investigated in water, LB medium, and oilfield produced water adding Pseudomonas fluorescens FSYZ01. After immersion at 30°C for 13days, the weight loss of carbon steel with this strain decreased by 32.23%, 54.07%, and 78.34%, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results show that P. fluorescens FSYZ01 inhibited conversion of iron oxides by hindering oxygen from approaching metal surface. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) results show that specific functional groups and bonds reacted with Fe(II/III) to form a dense and stable chelate-oxide protective layer, thereby inhibiting corrosion. Pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (Py-GCMS) results demonstrate the bacteria degraded C12 to C20 alkanes in oil. The inhibitory mechanism of crude oil-degrading bacteria P. fluorescens FSYZ01 on the carbon steel corrosion was proposed, so as to slow corrosion of oilfield produced water system pipeline and prolong its service life, helping to comprehend the microbial corrosion in the actual environment.
