What’s on the microbial menu?
Every living organism needs the right food to thrive, and microbes are no exception. In gas and hydrogen infrastructure, microorganisms thrive in nutrient-limited, anaerobic environments, feeding on the smallest traces of organic and inorganic compounds. But not all microbes eat the same meal. Understanding who consumes what is key to predicting and managing their impact on your system! Â The main microbial players in gas and hydrogen storage are impacting the infrastructure
