Efficiency of five scale inhibitors on calcium carbonate precipitation from hard water: Effect of temperature and concentration
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of temperature and concentration of five scale inhibitors (three polyphosphates, one polyphonate and one polycarboxylate) on calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation from hard water are reported.

Role of sulphate ions on the formation of calcareous deposits on steel in artificial seawater; the formation of Green Rust compounds during cathodic protection
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of sulphate ions on the kinetics and mechanisms of formation of calcareous deposits forming on the steel surface was studied, and it was demonstrated that sulphate ion had an important effect on the formation of both Ca (II)- and Mg(II)-containing phases.

Influence of clay on calcareous deposit in natural and artificial sea water
TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative model is proposed to explain the role of clay suspension in the formation of calcareous deposits in a marine structure under cathodic protection, and the model shows that the clay effect is negligible on the deposition kinetics of Ca-based films in the absence of Mg2+ and small for the Mg-based film in absence of Ca2+.

Interactions between steels and sulphide-producing bacteria—Corrosion of carbon steels and low-alloy steels in natural seawater
TL;DR: In this article, commercial steel grades (carbon steels and low-alloy steels) are immersed for approximately 1 year in two types of natural seawater, which contain different concentrations of sulphide-producing bacteria.
