Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) occurs when microorganisms influence or accelerate corrosion processes, often leading to severe damage in industrial systems. BIOCORIX specializes in assessing, analyzing, mitigating and monitoring MIC, with tailored solutions that prevent equipment failure, reduce operational costs, and extend the life of assets.
At BIOCORIX, our approach is rooted in a deep understanding of your system's unique characteristics and challenges. Here's how we ensure comprehensive and customized solutions:
We begin by examining the design and operational parameters of your system, along with previous results from chemical and microbiological analyses. This step allows us to gain a clear understanding of the system's history and current state.
Using a wide array of advanced techniques and methodologies, we select the most appropriate tools for your specific situation (e.g. total biomass measurement, qPCR, sequencing, SEM-EDX, 3D profilometry, water chemistry parameters, corrosion product analysis, etc.). Every system and challenge is unique, and we focus on employing the methods that yield the most accurate and actionable insights.
We recognize that no one person can know everything. If an issue arises that is outside of our primary expertise, we draw on our trusted network of collaborators from related fields. By bringing in specialists who are best suited to address the problem, we ensure that no challenge goes unresolved.
Once we gather the data, we perform detailed analyses tailored to your system's needs. Our reports are customized to align with your objectives and may include:
We don't just stop at solving problems; we stay with you to ensure the long-term success of your system. This includes regular evaluations, performance monitoring, and adjustments as needed to maintain optimal performance.
At every stage, we prioritize precision, reliability, and solutions that deliver long-term value. By combining deep expertise, thoughtful collaboration, and a commitment to tailored solutions, we deliver reliable strategies and lasting improvements for your system. You can trust us to address your challenges comprehensively, no matter how complex they may be.
Any industry where microorganisms are potentially growing, including but not limited to the oil and gas industry, utilities, industrial cooling water systems, food production, pharmaceutical industries, and more.
