Biodesulfurization of Cayirhan Lignites

, , &
Pages 559-565 | Published online: 21 Aug 2006
 

In this study, the lignite was improved oxidizing sulfur compounds by Thiobacillus thiooxidans and Thiobacillus ferrooxidans bacteria. Experiments in the batch reactors have been carried out 20% aqueous suspension of coal samples. Sugar beet molasses was used as the bacterial substrate. The maximum removal of combustible sulfur was obtained as 78.2% under the following conditions; addition 5% of T. thiooxidans and 5% T. ferrooxidans into coal suspension, 0.2 g molasses/g coal change, pH value of 3, at shaking rate of 70 rpm and at 40°C for 5 days.
