Corroso-Bac™
FOR THE PREVENTION OF CORROSION AND SCALE 
Corroso-Bac™ is a proprietary combination of natural, facultative anaerobic bacteria used in oil well operations to inhibit corrosion and scale formation through its metabolic byproducts, including alcohols, ketones, organic acids, and bio surfactants. Like other products, Corroso-Bac™ also has the ability to disperse, dissolve, and prevent paraffin deposition. Application of Corroso-Bac™ protects the formation face, as well as down hole and surface equipment, from corrosion by sequestration, filming, and removing solids that cause under deposit corrosion. The byproducts of metabolism, the ketones and organic acids, are polarizing agents that can inhibit the corrosion process. This is accomplished by neutralizing the cathodic portion of the metal, breaking the "circuit" of the corrosion cell. This is similar to the process by which chemical inhibitors work.
