Iron has played a crucial role in the human ecosystem currently in transportation, manufacturing, and infrastructure. Iron oxide is known as rust, usually the reddish-brown oxide formed by iron and oxygen reactions in moisture from water or air. Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a significant problem to the economic damage, especially in industrial sectors and its direct presence with nitrate/iron-reducing bacteria. This paper aims to explore the MIC of iron by nitrate-reducing Bacillus sp. including the redox reaction occurs, microbiologically influenced corrosion, iron/nitrate-reducing and mechanisms of microbial iron/nitrate reduction.
