MICROBIAL REMOVAL OF ORGANIC SULFUR FROM COAL
|
Abstract:
Two strains of heterotrophic bacteria, D-l-1 and D-2-1, was isolated from Ren Qiu Oil Field (China) and identified as Pseudomonas menaocoas and Alcaligenes paradoxus biovar I , respectively. These strains are able to utilize Dibenzothiophene (DBT) as the carbon source for growth, and convert DBT into water-soluble organic compounds containing sulfur. They can remove 22. 2-32.0% of the organic sulfur from coal samples for 15 days.
