Abstract: The concentration of sulphate present in wastewater can vary from 10 to 500 mg SO42−/L. During anaerobic conditions, sulphate is reduced to sulphide by sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB). Sulphide generation is undesired in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).… read more here.

Abstract: AbstractIndustrial wastewaters containing high concentrations of sulphate, such as those generated by mining, metallurgical and mineral processing industries, require electron donor for biological sulfidogenesis. In this study, five types of lignocellulosic biowastes were characterized as… read more here.
