Prevention of microbiologically influenced corrosion in fire protection systems
Application of an effective prevention program for microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) can be as varied as the types of systems susceptible to this corrosion process. By their design, fire protection systems are typically stagnant reservoirs of untreated water that provide ideal environmental conditions for MIC to proliferate, resulting in expensive but necessary repairs. There is particular concern when these systems are installed over manufacturing clean-room space, because pipe failure would cause major impacts on production. Since absolute effectiveness of any treatment program in fire sprinkler systems would take years to validate, there is evidence that through application of certain piping arrangements in the system and a consistent treatment program, formation of MIC can be prevented or delayed and pipe repairs postponed for scheduled downtime.
