Comparative Characteristics and Desilicon Ability of 10 Strains of Silicate Bacteria Screened from Different Bauxite Ores

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ten strains of silicate bacteria were screened from three bauxite samples in Jiangxi Province and Henan Province in China. The ten strains were determined as B. mucilaginosus according to the results of physiological and biochemical characteristics and desilicon ability. Bioleaching tests showed that the ten strains all can decompose bauxite ore and release silicon from bauxite, but had a large difference of desilicon ability among them.
