Nanjing-China developed PhosArmor, an innovative system in which engineered bacteria autonomously adhere to pipeline surfaces and form a dense phosphate-based protective layer through PhoU overexpression, reducing both corrosion and labor costs. Compared with conventional anti-corrosion coatings, PhosArmor is more environmentally friendly and cost-effective. It also incorporates a light-activated kill switch to prevent genetically modified bacteria from spreading beyond the designated pipeline environment, ensuring effective biocontainment and biosafety. Overall, PhosArmor provides a safe, sustainable, and reliable solution for protecting wastewater pipelines from corrosion.
