English abstract:
Corrosion of pipes made of stainlness steel in the process water distribution system of a paper mill was investigated by various analytical and electrochemical methods. The attack was identified as MIC by manganese oxidizing microorganisms. The preferential attack of the heat tinted welds is explained by the potetial shift caused by biomineralized MnO2, wihich prevents repassivation of the stainless steel in the water being relatively low in chloride for the particular alloy.
