Use of an intelligent control system to evaluate multiparametric effects on iron oxidation by thermophilic bacteria

Article Abstract:

A learning-based intelligent control system called BioExpert was used to investigate the combined effects of pH, temperature and iron concentration on the oxidation of iron by moderately thermophilic acidophilic mining bacteria. BioExpert's capability of simultaneously varying the multiparameters allowed it to determine the interactive effects of temperature and pH. These interactive effects cannot be detected in an experiment where only the temperature is varied.

Adhesion of biodegradative anaerobic bacteria to solid surfaces

Article Abstract:

Research is conducted on the influence of environmental, physiological and physiochemical conditions on the anaerobic bacteria adhesion to solid surfaces. Results demonstrate the influence of bacteria attachment and detachment on their transport through the subsurface.
