Read this article about a new ASTM International Test Method which aims to address corrosion in petrochemical pipelines by helping to detect quantities of corrosion-inducing bacteria in water, here. Modern Water plc's SRB Test Kit meets the proposed new standard.

The test method produces real benefits to customers: the real-time detection of corrosion inducing bacteria allows faster and more accurate remediation, which in turn reduces corrosion costs in pipelines and equipment.
