Importance of Sulphate-reducing Bacteria in Environment
The sulphate-reducing bacteria represent the part of the biosphere, the active component in the cycle of elements in the biosphere and as shown by the existing knowledge they are becoming also the part of the environmental industrial technologies. The objective of this work was to give principal information concerning characteristics, the occurrence and the importance of sulphate-reducing bacte...
متن کاملSulphate Reducing Bacteria and Mackinawite Stability
Introduction: The formation of sedimentary iron monosulphides (mackinawite, greigite) and pyrite is strongly interlinked with bacterial sulphate reduction, and thus with the global geochemical Fe, S and C cycles [1, 2]. The inorganic formation and stability of FeS phases at T < 100 ̊C has been extensively studied due to their vital importance in the sedimentary pyrite formation processes [e.g., ...
متن کاملa study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns
attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...
The role of sulphate-reducing bacteria in oil recovery
Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are a group of microbes that use sulfate (SO4 ) as a final electron acceptor instead of oxygen for respiration (Al-Zuhair, El-Naas et al. 2008). SRB are able to use a very wide spectrum of different low molecular organic compounds (e.g. lactate, acetate, proprionate, succinate, pyruvate, ethanol, sugars, etc.) for growth, with SO4 being reduced to hydrogen sulfid...
متن کاملEnergy metabolism and phylogenetic diversity of sulphate-reducing bacteria
Sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are those prokaryotic microorganisms, both bacteria and archaea, that can use sulphate as the terminal electron acceptor in their energy metabolism, i.e. that are capable of dissimilatory sulphate reduction. Most of the SRB described to date belong to one of the four following phylogenetic lineages (with some examples of genera): (i) the mesophilic d-proteobacte...
