Janssen et al. have studied the properties of sulfur produced by bacteria of the genus Thiobacillus grown at neutral to alkaline pH [19, 40, 41]. The sulfur was produced in a bioreactor in which a mixed culture of Thiobacilli was present. [Pg.178]

X-ray diffraction of sulfur particles excreted by Thiobacillus sp. showed the presence of orthorhombic sulfur crystals. The solubility of crystalline orthorhombic sulfur in water is known to be only 5 /tg 1 [42]. In the solubility test shown in Fig. 7 it was seen that the biologically produced sulfur particles can be dispersed in water but not in hexadecane, whereas crystalline orthorhombic sulfur is soluble in hexadecane but not in water. The reason for the observed hydrophilicity of the biologically produced sulfur particles has to be attributed to the hydrophilic properties of the surface of the sulfur particles. Because of the relatively high stability of the biologically produced sulfur particles at high salt concentrations, it is concluded that the colloidal stability is not merely based on electrostatic repulsion. It is known that hydrophobic sulfur can be wetted by Thiobacillus thiooxidans bacteria due to formation of organic surface-active substances [43, 44]. [Pg.178]

Such bacteria multiply in very aidic solutions (pH < 4.5). Their greatest amoxmt (on average 10 -10 cell-g" ) are discovered in water of copper sulphide and sulphide-polymetallic ore. The source of energy for them are oxidizing processes of not only protoxide metals in water solutions but also almost all reduced forms of sulphur. Bacteria Leptospira ferrooxidans are also capable of oxidizing protoxide iron with getting energy. These bacteria are close in a number of properties to Thiobacillus ferrooxidans, but as opposed to them do not oxidize sulphur. [Pg.361]

Whether biotic or abiotic, degradation is essentially lydiolytic or (photo/thermo)-oxidative (other modes exist such as acid attacks by Thiobacillus). For example, for the hydrolysis of poly(lactic add) (PLA), the reaction is veiy slow at low temperatures (20-25°C), but very fast at temperatures around 60°C (Figure 14.2). We can also mention the abiotic degradation of poly(ethylene) by photo- and thermo-oxidation (Figure 14.3) which results in a drastic decrease in molar masses, a loss of mechanical properties of the material, an increase in the carbonyl index up to 1713 cm and the progressive appearance of degradation molecules, such as ketones, alcohols, acids and so on.
