Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of corrosive bacterial consortia isolated from petroleum-product-transporting pipelines
Aruliah Rajasekar,B. Anandkumar,Sundaram Maruthamuthu,Yen-Peng Ting,Pattanathu K. S. M. Rahman +4 more
TL;DR: Several types of bacteria may be involved in biocorrosion arising from natural biofilms that develop in industrial facilities, and localized (pitting) corrosion of the pipeline steel in the presence of the consortia was observed by scanning electron microscopy analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple, rapid and single step method for fabricating superhydrophobic titanium surfaces with improved water bouncing and self cleaning properties
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple, rapid, inexpensive and eco-friendly method for fabricating super hydrophobic (SHP) titanium surface using ethanolic solution of myristic acid and HCl through simultaneous anodization and adsorption was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene oxide-chitosan-silver composite coating on Cu-Ni alloy with enhanced anticorrosive and antibacterial properties suitable for marine applications
Geetisubhra Jena,Geetisubhra Jena,B. Anandkumar,S.C. Vanithakumari,Rani P. George,John Philip,John Philip,G. Amarendra,G. Amarendra +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a ternary composite coating consisting of graphene oxide (GO)-chitosan -silver on Cu-Ni Alloy with enhanced anticorrosive and antibacterial properties, produced using inexpensive and industrially scalable electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation of rare earth elements by siderophore-forming Arthrobacter luteolus isolated from rare earth environment of Chavara, India
TL;DR: Arthrobacter luteolus isolated from rare earth environment of Chavara (Quilon district, Kerala, India), were found to produce catechol-type siderophores, which may play a role in the accumulation of rare earth elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
High performance green concrete (HPGC) with improved strength and chloride ion penetration resistance by synergistic action of fly ash, nanoparticles and corrosion inhibitor
Manu Harilal,Manu Harilal,V.R. Rathish,B. Anandkumar,Rani P. George,M.S. Haji Sheikh Mohammed,John Philip,John Philip,G. Amarendra,G. Amarendra +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a novel high performance green concrete fabricated by incorporating fly ash, nanoparticles and corrosion inhibiting admixture into conventional M45 grade concrete is reported, which is very promising not only for cost reduction and improved properties of concrete structures, but also reduces energy consumption and green house gas emissions.
