Sulfur Oxidation and Coupled Iron Reduction at Low Temperatures

Abstract:

The purpose of this work was to characterize elemental sulfur oxidation by a psychrotrophic Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans culture that originated from an AMD-impacted surface soil in a permafrost area in northern Siberia. In this work, the iron-oxidizing culture was cultivated with elemental sulfur with and without Fe2+ or Fe3+ in flasks on a shaker to avoid oxygen limitation.
