“…In regard to the treatment of wastewater with high content of sulfate in MFC, this has been suggested because biogenic sulfide has been proven as an efficient redox mediator and can act as electron donor to the anode, which could result in an increase of energy generation (Logan et al, 2006;Lovley 2006;Angelov et al, 2013). A MFC can be utilized for the treatment of wastewater with high sulfate content despite the potential competition that may exist between sulfate and the electrode as electron acceptor in those cases in which there is presence of microorganisms that present high affinity to the electrode.…”

“…[22][23][24]. As shown here and in previous research, MFCs can be used to treat AMD or sulphate wastewater and generate electricity [25][26][27][28][29][30]. However, there has been little in literature reporting an MFC-PRB system in relation to remediation of AMD.…”

In this study, a coupled membrane-free microbial fuel cell (MFC) with permeable reactive barrier (PRB) was reported and its treatment performance and electricity generation for acid mine drainage (AMD) were examined. The pilot-scale continuous flow MFC-PRB was operated for five periods at a hydraulic retention time of 48.0 h, and the average sulphate removal percentages of 51.2%, 39.8%, and 33.1% were obtained in effluent of 1,000, 2,000, 3,000 mg/l, respectively. More than 99.5% of the initial concentrations of Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ , and Pb 2+ were removed, resulting in concentrations of those elements of 0.01-0.05 mg/l in the effluent. The results demonstrated that the MFC-PRB holds a potential capacity for remediation of AMD.

“…desulfuricans , the SRB used in this study, was obtained from the Bioresource Collection and Research Center, Hsinchu, Taiwan. The medium used for D. desulfuricans , Postgate’s medium (DSMZ, Desulfovibrio medium, Medium 63), was prepared as follows [39,40,41]: A 980 mL solution A (0.5 g of K 2 HPO 4 , 1 g of NH 4 Cl, 2 g of MgSO 4 ·7H 2 O, 1 g of Na 2 SO 4 , 0.1 g of CaCl 2 ·2H 2 O, 1 g of yeast extract, and 2 g of sodium lactate) was boiled, and the dissolved oxygen in the solution was removed using a mechanical deaerator with nitrogen. A 10 mL solution B (0.1 g of ascorbic acid and 0.1 g of sodium thioglycolate) and a 10 mL solution C (0.5 g of FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O) were added to solution A.…”

Biocides are frequently used to control sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in biofouling. The increasing restrictions of environmental regulations and growing safety concerns on the use of biocides result in efforts to minimize the amount of biocide use and develop environmentally friendly biocides. In this study, the antimicrobial activity and corrosion inhibition effect of a low-toxic alternative biocide, benzyldimethyldodecylammonium chloride (BDMDAC), on a 304 stainless steel substrate immersed in a Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (D. desulfuricans)-inoculated medium was examined. Potentiodynamic polarization curves were used to analyze corrosion behavior. Biofilm formation and corrosion products on the surfaces of 304 stainless steel coupons were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum, and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Results demonstrated that this compound exhibited satisfactory results against microbial corrosion by D. desulfuricans. The corrosion current density and current densities in the anodic region were lower in the presence of BDMDAC in the D. desulfuricans-inoculated medium. SEM and CLSM analyses revealed that the presence of BDMDAC mitigated formation of biofilm by D. desulfuricans.
