Bacterial biofilm development is a serious problem in many fields, and the existing biofilm monitoring sensors often turn out to be inadequate. In this perspective, a new sensor (ALVIM) has been developed, exploiting the natural marine and freshwater biofilms electrochemical activity, proportional to surface covering. The results presented in this work, obtained testing the ALVIM system both in laboratory and in an industrial environment, show that the sensor gives a fast and accurate response to biofilm growth, and that this response can be used to optimize cleaning treatments inside pipelines. Compared to the existing biofilm sensors, the proposed system show significant technological innovations, higher sensitivity and precision. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
