Corrosion of Copper in Cold-Water Plumbing Systems

Corrosion of Copper in Cold-Water Plumbing Systems

After replacing the cold water piping in a public building in 1985, copper content increased after one year and pipe perforations occurred in 1989. The corrosion was different from previously known types; copper resistant microorganisms caused the microbiologically induced corrosion. The experimenta...

Zusammenfassung:After replacing the cold water piping in a public building in 1985, copper content increased after one year and pipe perforations occurred in 1989. The corrosion was different from previously known types; copper resistant microorganisms caused the microbiologically induced corrosion. The experimental results are presented.
