Modeling the kinetics of pyrite ash biodesulfurization by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Acetobacter aceti in liquid state bioreactors
Background: Modeling the kinetics of the biodesulphurization bioprocess for the refining of pyrite ash by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Acetobacter aceti have been studied in batch-type liquid- state bioreactors. Results: The biodesulphurization experiments were performed at varying temperatures of 2...
