One of the critical approaches for scale control is the proper selection and use of scale inhibitors.
Laboratory tests help to select the appropriate scale inhibitor with the most common testing methods,
including static bottle test and dynamic scaling loop test. Recently, Kinetic Turbidity Test (KTT) has
gained increased recognition as a new testing method for scale inhibitor evaluation due to short testing
time, simple sample preparation, and good reproducibility. There has been a good deal of research and
studies on KTT as a technique for multifunctional scales, including calcium carbonate and barium
sulfate (especially low scaling brines), halite and silicates. In addition, KTT can examine dispersant
effects of polymers and surfactants on scale and other solids and can work under anaerobic conditions
to give mechanistic understanding in the presence of iron. This paper discusses an alternative and
efficient scale inhibitor testing method and gives insight for scale treatment chemistry and dosage by
comparing and contrasting the different evaluation methods for scale inhibitors.

Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is one of the most aggressive forms of corrosion leading to infrastructure and equipment damage in various industries, including but not limited to the oil and gas industry,1 water systems,2 medical devices,3 marine environments,4 nuclear waste storage facilities,5 and aviation fuel systems6 and storage.7 MIC received great attention because of the increasing cost associated with corrosion damage, particularly in oil and gas industry. The overall cost of corrosion has been estimated to be approximately 3.4% in the global Gross National Product8 which equates to approximately $2.9 trillion in 2018.9 A conservative estimate shows that 20% of all corrosion in aqueous system is MIC,10 which accounts to billions of dollars in the US.
