P Accumulation

Iron oxidation and reduction were examined using the activated sludge from a municipal plant. Iron contents of the activated sludge were 1–2%. Iron oxidation rates were correlated with the initial iron concentrations. Iron reducing rates could be described by the Monod equation. The effects of iron reducing bacteria on sulfate reduction, denitrification and poly-P accumulation were examined. Iron reduction suppressed sulfate reduction by competing with hydrogen produced from protein. Denitrification was outcompeted with iron reduction and sulfate reduction. These phenomena could be explained thermodynamically. Poly-P accumulation was also suppressed by denitrification. The activity of iron reduction was relatively high.

Kinetics Of

The kinetics of permanganate oxidation of DL-α-alanine in aqueous perchloric acid solution at a constant ionic strength of 2.0 mol dm−3 has been investigated spectrophotometrically. The reaction was found to show second-order kinetics overall with respect to each of the reactants in the slow initial stage; the second-order kinetics are not, however, maintained throughout the relatively fast final stage of reaction. The added salts lead to the prediction that Mn(III) and (or) Mn(IV) play a very important role in the reaction kinetics. A tentative mechanism consistent with the kinetics is discussed. Key words: kinetics, oxidation, reduction, amino acids, permanganate.

The batch oxidation kinetics of ferrous iron by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans were examined at different oxygen transfer rates and pH in an aerated stirred tank and a bubble column. The microbial growth, oxygen consumption rate and ferrous and ferric iron were monitored during the biooxidation. A kinetic model was established on the basis of the Michaelis-Menten kinetic equation for bacterial growth and the constants estimated from experimental data (maximum specific growth rate 0.069 h-1, saturation constant 2.9 g/dm3, and biomass yield coefficient based on ferrous iron 0.003 gd.w./gFe). Values calculated from the model agreed well with the experimental ones regardless of the bioreactor type and pH conditions.
