Abstract This review reports the application of essential oils (EOs) as a green corrosion/biocorrosion inhibitor. The topics discussed are: (i) sources and composition of EOs, (ii) adsorption mechanism, (iii) anticorrosion effects of EOs on metal surfaces, (iv) electrochemical investigations, (v) antimicrobial activity of EOs on corrosion-producing bacteria and algae, (vi) synergetic effects of EOs, and (vii) economical aspect and application of inhibitors. Various aspects of biofilms are discussed to identify microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and the characterization of microorganisms causing MIC. The studies indicate that EOs have the potential as eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors in both aggressive chemicals and biofilm environments.

1 Introduction Corrosion is a common problem associated with metalbased applications. Corrosion of metal/metal alloy surfaces is due to the formation of metal compounds induced by the development of anodic and cathodic areas on the metal/ alloy surfaces. Metal surfaces are prone to corrosion when exposed to corrodents or corrosion-causing agents. Some of the commonly used chemicals, materials, or conditions that can act as corrodents include soot, chloride ions, sulfate salts, acidic/alkaline materials, dissolved gases, bacteria, humidity, salinity, temperature, and mechanical stresses. The corrosion of metals (due to chemical attack or biofilm formation) has a signif
