Microbial Corrosion

Microbial Corrosion

Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) is a significant form of material degradation caused by the metabolic activities of microorganisms. This phenomenon poses substantial challenges across various industries, including oil and gas, maritime, and water treatment sectors.MIC occurs when microorganisms, such as bacteria, archaea, and fungi, colonize metal surfaces, forming biofilms that alter the local electrochemical environment. These biofilms can lead to the production of corrosive...

Background:

Nanoscale pigments are increasingly used in diverse sectors like medicine and materials science.
Their environmental persistence and potential health effects necessitate risk assessment.
Traditional pigment understanding is challenged by modern nanotechnology's applications and impacts.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the risks associated with nanoscale pigments using a One Health framework.
To explore environmental pathways, health determinants, and regulatory gaps for pigments.
To identify strategies for exposure minimization and sustainable pigment practices.

Main Methods:

Review of current literature on nanoscale pigment applications and risks.
Analysis of environmental fate and toxicological data.
Integration of One Health principles into risk assessment and governance.

Main Results:

Nanoscale pigments act as both innovation drivers and emerging contaminants.
Significant knowledge gaps exist regarding pigment physiochemical properties and their impact.
Current regulatory frameworks are insufficient to address nanotechnology-specific risks.

Conclusions:

A One Health perspective is essential for managing nanoscale pigment risks.
Benign-by-design principles and circular economy solutions are needed.
Global collaboration is urged for a sustainable future of nanoscale pigments.
