Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 aerobe, nan organism that requires oxygen to re-main metabolically active.3.1.1.1 DiscussionAerobes use oxygen as their terminalelectron acceptor in their primary energy-generating metabolicpathways. Aerobes require oxygen for surv

29、ecreases, water becomes morecorrosive. At A.I. $ 12, water is noncorrosive. At 10 #A.I. 13.0. Potentialfood sources range from single carbon molecules (carbondioxide and methane) to complex polymers, including plastics.Oxygen requirements range from obligate anaerobes, whichdie on contact with oxyge

31、rea material tested (g biomass / mL; gbiomass / g; cells / mL sample, and so forth). The specificparameter used to define bioburden depends on critical prop-erties of the system evaluated and the investigators prefer-ences.3.1.8 biocide, na poisonous substance that can kill livingorganisms.3.1.8.1 D

32、iscussionBiocides are further classified as bac-tericides (kill bacteria), fungicides (kill fungi), and microbio-cides (kill both bacterial and fungi).

48、 Summary4.1 Microbes may be introduced into fuels as products coolin refinery tanks. Bacteria and fungi are carried along with dustparticles and water droplets through tank vents. In seawaterballasted tanks, microbes are transported with the ballast.Vessel compartments ballasted with fresh, brackish

49、, or seawa-ter, all of which may contain substantial numbers of microbes,may easily become contaminated with the microbes trans-ported with the ballast water. See Section 6 for more a detaileddiscussion.4.2 After arriving in fuel tanks, microbes may either stick tooverhead surfaces or settle through the product. Some mi-crobes will adhere to tank walls, whereas others will settle tothe fuel/water interface. Most growth and activity takes placewhere fuel and water meet. The tank bottom fuel/waterinterface is the most obvious fuel/wat
