Iron Corrosion under the Enrichment Culture of Anaerobic Microorganisms Utilizing Metallic Iron as an Electron Donor

Microbiological study of the anaerobic corrosion of iron

Hydrogen as an electron donor for dechlorination of tetrachloroethene by an anaerobic mixed culture.

Hydrogen served as an electron donor in the reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene to vinyl chloride and ethene over periods of 14 to 40 days in anaerobic enrichment cultures; however, sustained dechlorination for more extended periods required the addition of filtered supernatant from a methanol-fed culture. This result suggests a nutritional dependency of hydrogen-utilizing dechlorinat...

Anaerobic redox cycling of iron by freshwater sediment microorganisms.

The potential for microbially mediated anaerobic redox cycling of iron (Fe) was examined in a first-generation enrichment culture of freshwater wetland sediment microorganisms. Most probable number enumerations revealed the presence of significant populations of Fe(III)-reducing (approximately 10(8) cells ml(-1)) and Fe(II)-oxidizing, nitrate-reducing organisms (approximately 10(5) cells ml(-1)...

N-doped graphene as an electron donor of iron catalysts for CO hydrogenation to light olefins.

N-doped graphene used as an efficient electron donor of iron catalysts for CO hydrogenation can achieve a high selectivity of around 50% for light olefins, significantly superior to the selectivity of iron catalysts on conventional carbon materials, e.g. carbon black with a selectivity of around 30% at the same reaction conditions.

environmental effects of gol-e-gohar iron ore mine on groundwater of the area

gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...
