Bioremediation by Sulfate Reducing Bacteria of Acid Mine Drainage
Mining activity produces metal sulfide wastes particularly pyrite which remain in the mine long after operations cease. When water percolates through a mine where oxygen is present, a series of chemical reactions occur which produce extremely low pH and high concentrations of toxic sulfate and metal ions. This toxic leachate can cause severe aquatic habitat degradation downstream of the mine. T...
متن کاملQuantifying Heavy Metals Sequestration by Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in an Acid Mine Drainage-Contaminated Natural Wetland
Bioremediation strategies that depend on bacterial sulfate reduction for heavy metals remediation harness the reactivity of these metals with biogenic aqueous sulfide. Quantitative knowledge of the degree to which specific toxic metals are partitioned into various sulfide, oxide, or other phases is important for predicting the long-term mobility of these metals under environmental conditions. H...
متن کاملRemoval of Metal Ions from Mine Effluents Using Bacterial Reactions by Sulfate Reducing Bacteria
Metals in mine effluents, especially metal mines, have been a major environmental concern. High mobility of the metals in solution and the subsequent lowering of discharge limits by the EPA have necessitated expensive chemical treatment of the effluent. Bacteriological reactions, particularly by Sulfate Reducing Bacteria, have been known to reduce metals content in water by precipitating them a...
متن کاملModeling the Kinetics of Removal for Uranium(vi) and Sulfate from Aqueous Solutions in the Presence of Sulfate-reducing Bacteria
The objective of these studies is to describe and characterize the reactions involved in the reduction and precipitation of heavy metal ions by both a mixed culture of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), as well as a pure culture of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (ATCC 7757). The enzymatic reduction of soluble hexavalent U(VI) to insoluble tetravalent U(IV) by Desulfovibrio desulfuricans has been rep...
متن کاملSimultaneous Electricity Generation and Sulfur Removal by Electrogenic Sulfate Reducing Bacteria in BES System
The modern BioElectrochemical technologies can convert the energy stored in the chemical bonds of biodegradable organic materials to renewable electrical energy through the catalytic reactions of microorganisms while treating the waste waters. The present research was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of a single-chamber Bioelectrochemical system with the carbon aerogel catalyst, as a simple...
