Excerpt

In recent years, field inspectors in nine states have reported many rapidly corroding components of underground gas storage tanks. These incidents are generally associated with use of gasoline-ethanol blends and the presence of bacteria, Acetobacter aceti, which convert ethanol to acetic acid, a component of vinegar. Following up on the inspectors’ findings, a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) laboratory study has demonstrated severe corrosion—rapidly eating through one millimeter of wall thickness per year—on steel alloy samples exposed to ethanol and acetic acid vapors. The study focused on sump pump components, especially the pump casings, which are typically made of steel or cast iron. …
