Abstract:
Solid waste from sulphuric acid production contains high concentrations of metals that are harmful if released to the environment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the acid bioleaching of metals from a sample of pyritic ashes, consisting mainly of hematite. Bioleaching was tested in shake flasks and continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTR) inoculated with iron and sulphur oxidising acidophiles. Solubilisation of metals was mainly achieved through acid attack due to the formation of sulphuric acid by sulphur oxidising bacteria.

Abstract:
The aim of the present work was to study the feasibility of using bioleaching for the solubilisation of metals from solid waste streams and by-products of copper, steel and recycling industries. Optimal process conditions were tested using iron and sulphur oxidising acidophiles in shake flasks at 25°C. The effects of inoculum, ferrous iron, sulphur, chloride ion, pH, and the type of waste material on metal solubilisation were evaluated. Solubilisation of metals was mainly achieved through acid attack due to the formation of sulphuric acid by sulphur oxidising bacteria. Addition of ferrous iron

Abstract Sulphur-oxidising autotrophic bacterial communities in deep biosphere from weathered ore samples from active gold mine Hodruša-Hámre, Slovakia were analysed using cultivation approach followed by DNA extraction, PCR amplification and 16S rRNA gene analyses. Indirect measurement of pH changes in cultivation media evidenced the presence of acidophilic bacteria with active production of acids. The decrease of pH was observed at the beginning of isolation and later pH in range of 1.5 – 2 was maintained in both, sulphuric acid and thiosulphate, media. The presence of homogenous population

Abstract:
The emission of sulphur compounds into the environment is undesirable because of their acidifying characteristics. The processing of sulphidic ores, oil refining and sulphuric acid production are major sources of SO2 emissions. Hydrogen sulphide is emitted into the environment as dissolved sulphide in wastewater or as H2S in natural gas, biogas, syngas or refinery gases. Waste streams containing sulphate are generated by many industries, including mining, metallurgical, pulp and paper and petrochemical industries. Applying process technologies that rely on the biological sulphur cycle can prev

The paper presents the results of the study of selected fiber-cement boards parameters influenced by sulphur-oxidising (Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans) and sulphur-reducing bacteria (Desulfovibrio desulfuricans) attack. The experiments proceeded during 80 days under laboratory model conditions. The surface changes, chemical composition and pH of leachates as well as weight changes were investigated. The more extensive leaching of silicon and calcium ions from the cement matrix was confirmed under bacteria influence. The pH of liquid media has been settled to 7 and 9 for Acidithiobacillus thioox

Abstract:
To dissolve pyrite or sulphur, leaching bacteria like Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans attach to these substrata by extracellular polymeric substances (specifically, lipopolysaccharides). The primary attachment to pyrite at pH 2 is mediated by exopolymer-complexed iron(III) ions in an electrostatic interaction with the negatively charged pyrite surface. Cells grown on sulphur exhibit a different composition of the extracellular lipopolysaccharides, namely with increased hydrophobic properties, and do not attach to pyrite. Thus, the cells adapt the chemical composition of their exopolymers to the

Abstract:
Vegetation and microorganisms present the biological factors that deteriorate concrete. These problems are very visible in places like sewage, underground and hydraulic structures, chemical plants, industrial structures, liquid-containing structures, agricultural structures or marine environments. The most significant biodeteriogens are the sulphur-oxidising bacteria Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans (A. thiooxidans) and the sulphatereducing bacteria (Desulfovibrio spp.) that are responsible for the so-called sulphuretum consortium. Microorganisms that produce sulphuric acid accelerate the deterio

Abstract:
Quantifying the extent and rate of sulphur oxidation in systems catalysed by chemolithotrophic bacteria is inherently difficult due to the presence of solid phase sulphur. The absence of reliable measurements on the extent and rate of sulphur oxidation hinders investigations into the effects that water quality has on the catalysis caused by these organisms. This absence severely hampers attempts to optimise sulphur oxidation in base metal extraction systems and minimise environmental problems associated with acid mine drainage. This study examined the catalysed oxidation of elemental sulphur a
