本文将重点介绍用于调查和监测工业中微生物污染和腐蚀问题的方法。尽管相关的污垢和腐蚀问题在燃料系统、海洋结构和船体、钢筋混凝土结构、地下或潜艇设施中广泛发生，但X文章的大部分内容集中在水处理系统中的问题上。工业系统中微生物问题的控制已在其他地方进行了审查（Kobrin， 1993年；Boronstein， 1994年；Jack和Westlake， 1995年），这里只作简略的介绍。微生物在我们的环境中无处不在，只要条件允许，它们就很容易找到入侵工业系统的机会。这些看不见的病原体在各种各样的栖息地繁衍生息，并显示出一种惊人的能力，在任何营养和物理条件允许的地方，在富含水的表面上繁衍生息。微生物可以在水系统中普遍存在的整个温度范围内生长，压力很少是一种威慑，而对氮和磷的有限获取被一种惊人的能力所抵消，这种能力可以隔离、浓缩和保留这些基本营养物质，甚至是微量的水平。一般来说，工业系统的条件是有选择性的。不同的生物在不同的环境中茁壮成长。因此，通常困扰冷却塔甲板的藻类出现在光线可及的地方（McCoy, 1980）。
is article will focus on methods used to investigate and monitor microbial fouling and corrosion problems in industry. Much of the X article concentrates on problems in water handling systems although related problems of fouling and corrosion occur widely in fuel systems, on marine structures and ship hulls, in reinforced concrete structures, on underground or submarine installations, to name but a few. Control of microbial problems in industrial systems has been reviewed elsewhere (Kobrin, 1993; Boronstein, 1994; Jack and Westlake, 1995) and will only be touched on briefly here. Microorganisms pervade our environment and easily find opportunities to invade industrial systems wherever conditions permit These invisible agents flourish in a wide range of habitats and show a surprising ability to colonize water rich surfaces wherever nutrients and physical conditions allow. Microbial growth occurs over the whole range of temperatures commonly found in water systems, pressure is rarely a deterrent and limited access to nitrogen and phosphorus is offset by a surprising ability to sequester, concentrate and retain even trace levels of these essential nutrients. Generally conditions in industrial systems are selective. Different organisms thrive in different situations. Thus algae which commonly plague cooling tower decks are found in locations accessible to light (McCoy, 1980)
