Bacterial Oxidation of Pyritic Materials in Coal.
Applicability of the manometric method for studying the oxidation of pyritic material in the presence of bacteria has been demonstrated. Resting cells of Ferrobacillus ferrooxidans accelerated the oxidation of coal pyrites and coarsely crystalline marcasite, but were inactive on coarsely crystalline pyrite. Resting cells of Thiobacillus thiooxidans were inactive on all pyrites tested. Oxidation...
متن کاملEffect of Pretreatment on Pyritic Sulphur Reduction from Coal
Biological attack of pyrite is a potential method of reducing pyritic sulphur in coal. Integration of such attacks with microwave pretreatment can enhance the efficiency of the process. Alternatively, processes such as oil-agglomeration can be coupled with the biological attack to obtain higher rates of pyritic sulphur removal. In this study desulphurization of Indian (Assam) coal was carried o...
متن کاملExtraction of Aluminum from Combustion Ash of Coal Spoil
The rapid development of the global aluminum industry has led to a considerably increasing consumption of bauxite, from which alumina is mostly produced. Many aluminum producing countries including China have to import bauxite to keep the growth of native industry due to the low quality of bauxite. The costs of alumina production as well as the other aluminum-related products are correspondingl...
متن کاملMicrobial succession and mineral leaching in an artificial coal spoil.
An artificial pyritic coal spoil was prepared and examined over a period of 1.5 years for changes in the population of various physiological varieties of bacteria and also for mineral leaching. Heterotrophic bacteria were the first to dominate the spoil, acquiring a population of 10(7) cells per g within 2 weeks. Bacteria capable of utilizing choline sulfate as the sole source of energy compris...
متن کاملBiota and Chemical Weathering
The Earth has an average surface temperature of about 15°C, which is, in terms of planetary conditions suitable for life, the equivalent of winning the cosmic lottery. Yet, without an atmosphere filled with biological waste gases capable of retaining heat (O2, N2O, CH4, CO2), the average temperature of the planet would be about −18°C (Smil 2002), making the present diversity and abundance of li...
