An engine failure caused by erosion-corrosion of a fuel manifold was investigated. The surface of the boost elements (impeller and its cover) of the main fuel pump showed the wear damage by Fe-based particles. This incident reduced the fuel pressure abruptly, and led to engine shut-down. This was co

Manganese oxidizing microorganisms are known as ubiquitous species in soil and fresh water. Their ability to extract dissolved manganese even at minute concentrations from the water and to biomineralize it as manganese(III/IV)oxides makes them potentially relevant for corrosion processes in technica
