This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military aviation fuel systems can be an ideal environment for microorganisms. Microbial growth in hydrocarbon fuel systems arises because of the impracticality of keeping fuel tanks sterile and the inevitable presence of water from condensation. Microbial contaminants in aviation fuel systems are a concern because of their potential to degrade the fuel, accelerate tank corrosion, and threaten flight safety. This research addresses the concern of using more environmentally friendly Fuel System Icing Inhibitors (FSII), which are also biocidal. Are significant levels of microorganisms growing in military aviation fuel systems, and if so, are there any common variables? Forty aviation fuel samples were collected from fuel storage tanks (including flexible expeditionary fuel bladders), refueling trucks, and aircraft from 12 U,S, military bases. Samples were analyzed using peak naming and pattern recognition algorithms of sample extracts processed on a gas chromatograph. Significant levels of microorganisms were found in military aviation fuel systems 90% (36 of 40) of fuel samples produced microbial growth. Over 40% of the serial dilutions that produced microbial growth were characterized as moderately or heavily contaminated samples. The microorganisms isolated were overwhelmingly Gram negative, anaerobic, bacilli with populations varying by orders of magnitude.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of corrosion is a very broad interdisciplinary study involving many aspects of chemistry, metallurgy and chemical engineering. In recent of microbiological corrosion has begun to develop and to be years the subject recognized, and this area of corrosion is of enormous significance in relation to the behaviour of materials buried in soil, in industry in general in relation to all types of water usage, in the machining and fabrication of materials and in certain advanced technology areas such as aircraft. As new materials are developed we shall have to cope with biodeterioration of these and since these may in some cases take the form of coatings on metals the implication of this with respect to conventional corrosion processes will have to be taken into account. Indeed there is now a very strong case for considering corrosion as the "environmental degradation of materials" and for allowing this term to embrace all materials and all forms of degradation irrespective of mechanism. This article will be concerned only with those aspects of corrosion which are immediately relevant to the scope of this book. Atmospheric corrosion, mechanical influences in corrosion, i. e. , stress corrosion, corrosion fatigue, cavitation and fretting, and considerations of the effects of temperature and flow on corrosion will not be covered. The reader who may wish to extend his knowledge of these aspects of corrosion is advised to consult the standard 1 texts available.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The article is concerned with the microbiologic corrosion occurring in the fuel tanks of jet aircraft. A series of measures are noted which can be taken for detection of bacteria and fungi in fuels in order to prevent contamination of aircraft fuel tanks. The most important measure for contending with this problem appears to be constant checking on the condition of the fuel from the refinery through the tank farm to the fueling equipment at airports and in aircraft wing tanks.
