Microbial reduction of sulfur dioxide with pretreated sewage sludge and elemental hydrogen as electron donors.
19
TL;DR: It has been demonstrated that heat- and alkali-pretreated sewage sludge may serve as an electron donor and carbon source for SO2 reduction by Desulfovibrio desulfuricans and it has been shown that the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfotomaculum orientis can be grown on H2 as an energy source, CO2 as a carbon source, and SO2 asA terminal electron acceptor.

Abstract: It has been demonstrated that heat- and alkali-pretreated sewage sludge may serve as an electron donor and carbon source for SO2 reduction byDesulfovibrio desulfuricans. A continuousD. desulfuricans culture was operated for 6 mo with complete reduction of SO2 to H2S. The culture required only minor amounts of mineral nutrients in addition to pretreated sewage sludge. It has also been shown that the sulfate-reducing bacteriumDesulfotomaculum orientis can be grown on H2 as an energy source, CO2 as a carbon source, and SO2 as a terminal electron acceptor. Complete reduction of SO2 to H2S was observed.

Flue Gas Desulfurization: Physicochemical and Biotechnological Approaches
TL;DR: In this paper, the physicochemical processes have been categorized as once-through and regenerable, and the regenerable wet and dry processes include the Wellman Lord's process, citrate process, sodium carbonate eutectic process, magnesium oxide process, amine process, aqueous ammonia process, Berglau Forchung's process and Shell's process.

Nitrate and nitrite utilization in sulfate-reducing bacteria.
TL;DR: The geological evidence suggests that microbial reduction of Fe(III) and other metals may have evolved before other respiratory processes, such as sulfate, nitrate and oxygen reduction [7].

High rates of microbial sulphate reduction in a mesophilic ethanol-fed expanded-granular-sludge-blanket reactor
TL;DR: In a mesophilic (30-35°C), sulphidogenic, ethanol-fed expanded-granular-sludge-blanket reactor, sulphate, at loading rates of up to 10.0-12.0 g Sl−1␣day−1, was removed with an average efficiency of more than 80%.
