Introduction:

Corrosion refers to the partial and gradual dissolution of materials used in water treatment and supply systems, pumps, pipes, tanks and valves. In most circumstances, almost all water is corrosive and this may lead to structural failure, water leaks, capacity losses and deterioration of the microbial and chemical water quality (WHO 2011). The pipes used in water distribution are made of different materials such as plastic, metals (galvanized steel, copper, lead and iron), and even concrete. Pipes made from concrete and plastic tend to be corrosion resistant. In piping systems, however, there are several water quality factors working singly ...

Like all other species, humans exploit their surrounding for all the multiplicity of resources they not only require for sustenance but that which they also need for survival (Bernhardt, n.d.). In the recent years, however, the rate at which humans exploit and consume these resources has surpassed those of the other species. Several reasons account for this trend. First, recent advancements in technology have enabled man to affect vast areas of the world’s natural biological and non-biological space like never before. Secondly, the skyrocketing human population has progressively played a significant role in determining the record extent to ...
