Several different microorganisms have been suggested for coal desulfurization. In the present investigation, the thermophilic archaea Acidianus brierleyi (DSM 1651), Sulfolobus acidocaldarius (DSM 639) and Sulfolobus solfataricus (DSM 1616) were compared with the mesophilic bacterium Thiobacillus ferrooxidans (DSM 583) concerning their capability of removing sulfur from coal. The desulfurization rate as well as the amount of sulfur removed by the microorganisms was studied.
Two of the investigated microorganisms, Thiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidianus brierleyi, were capable of oxidizing pure pyrite as well as oxidizing sulfur in coal. A kinetic analysis was performed assuming first order reactions. The rate constant for oxidation of pure pyrite by A. brierleyi was observed to be higher than for T. ferrooxidans. The values of the rate constants for sulfur removal from coal were comparable for the two microorganisms, but were higher than for oxidation of pure pyrite. 相似文献

The flood/drain reactor consists of a bed of intermediate-sized coal (roughly 0.5 to 5 mm) periodically fluidized by pumping in a mixed bacterial culture. Metabolic products and coal fines are washed out of the bed, and large pyritic inclusions and other dense mineral matter tends to settle to the base of the bed. Draining the bed then draws in fresh air for subsequent pyrite removal by microorganisms. Experiments on a laboratory-scale bed, 10.2 cm diameter with two 12 × 30 mesh Illinois # 6 coals and a
Pittsburgh # 8 coal showed that up to 80% pyrite removal could be achieved in four weeks by this combination of physical separation and microbial activity. Operational problems included removal of fines from the bed during start-up and the appearance of acidophilic protozoa grazing on the pyrite-oxidizing bacteria. Significant improvement in performance is anticipated by eliminating the lag-phase of the sulfur-oxidizing bacteria and optimizing the timing of the flood/drain cycles. 相似文献
