Abstract

Key findings

  • Bacillus cereus biofilm exhibits efficient extracellular electron transfer, leading to enhanced corrosion rates of 316L stainless steel.
  • The biofilm's electron transfer mechanism is influenced by the presence of iron ions, which facilitate the transfer process.
  • The corrosion behavior of 316L stainless steel is significantly altered in the presence of Bacillus cereus biofilm, with increased pitting and crevice corrosion observed.
