  ABSTRACT: Corrosion inhibition characteristics of two biomass derived extracts from outer leaves of Brassica oleracea (BO) and Citrus paradise mesocarps (CPM) on pipeline steel were investigated using modified gravimetric method at ambient temperature (28 ± °C). Petroleum pipeline water was used to simulate a pseudo-anaerobic corrosion cell. The result obtained showed that corrosion was a continuous process in the closed system, while BO and CPM showed near equivalence corrosion inhibition efficiency of 91.45% and 89.44% respectively at the concentrations studied. The thermodynamic data suggests inhibition to be through molecular adsorption on metal surface.
