The influence of SRB and TB on the kinetics of carbon steel corrosion was investigated in recirculating water at the Kirishi refinery and in cumulative cultures of the SRB and TB obtained by inoculating elective nutrient media with the recirculating water (300 ml of water per 1000 ml of medium). The concentrations of SRB and TB in the recirculating water and in the cumulative cultures were determined by the serial dilution method. The corrosion activity of the microorganisms was evaluated on the basis of carbon steel specimen corrosion rates under dynamic and static conditions.
