The "specific" action of sulphinic acids with metal ions is not limited to compounds in which there is direct attachment of the —SO2H group to an aromatic ring. Since both aliphatic and aromatic sulphinic acids react similarly the assumption that an aromatic group is necessarily co-ordinated to the metal atom through its π system is not valid; the precipitated products are simple salts of the acids. Ferric iron yields at least two products with sulphinic acids. Ceric cerium is reduced in acid solution but an orange-yellow precipitate containing cerium is obtained from acetate-buffered solutions. Naphthalenesulphinic acid may be used to quantitatively precipitate [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text].[Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]

Geochemical modeling program PHREEQC was used to simulate generic bioleaching processes. Carbonate minerals (e.g., calcite) dissolve in acid solution, increasing the solution pH and Ca concentration while the concentration of CO2 may be controlled by the equilibrium with the atmospheric CO2. Non-oxidative dissolution of Fe-monosulphides was demonstrated to release H2S and increase the pH. In the absence of ferric iron precipitation (goethite), the oxidation of pyrite decreased the solution pH from 2 to ~1.4, while the oxidation of Fe-monosulphide and chalcopyrite increased the solution pH to ~3.2-3.4. Assuming equilibrium precipitation of goethite, oxidative leaching decreased the solution pH for all three minerals from pH ~2 to ~0.9-1.2. Adjustment of the solution pH to 1.8 or 2.0 with KOH with concurrent equilibrium precipitation of K-jarosite resulted in low dissolved iron concentrations.

It is shown that the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis or a rapidly growing strain of Mycobacterium in Dubos' medium is not influenced by the addition of low concentrations of cysteine or ferric salts, when added separately. But when cysteine and a ferric salt, both in low concentrations, are autoclaved together in the medium, the medium will not support growth of Mycobacterium. This inhibitory action only occurs when the cysteine–iron containing medium is at pH 6.8 or a more acid reaction. It is concluded that cysteine and ferric iron react in acid solution to produce a toxic end product.

To investigate the feasibility of using fresh water from Mangueira Lagoon (Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil) for biomass production in open raceway ponds (0.7 m long, 0.18 m wide, 0.075 m deep) we studied the influence of nutrient addition (carbon as sodium bicarbonate, nitrogen as urea, phosphate, sulfate, ferric iron, magnesium and potassium) on the growth rate of the cyanobacteria Spirulina platensis using a 22 factorial design. In unsupplemented lagoon water production of S. platensis was 0.78 ± 0.01 g/l (dry weight basis) while the addition of 2.88 g/l of sodium bicarbonate (without added urea, phosphate, sulfate or metal ions) resulted in 0.82 ± 0.01 g/l after 400 hours of culture. The further addition of phosphate and metal ions resulted in growth for up to 750 h and a final S. platensis biomass of 1.23 ± 0.04 to 1.34 ± 0.03 g/l
