The removal of sulfur mediated by microorganisms or biodesulfurization (BDS) is already an extensively studied approach. The first studies were reported in the 50’s and 60’s, but only in the last 20 years have been successful breakthroughs. Through BDS it is possible to remove most of the recalcitrant sulfur compounds to the commonly physico-chemical process at mild operating conditions without molecular hydrog...
Combustion of fossil fuels generates emissions of numerous toxic gases which in later years have become a major concern internationally. One of the most concerning problems is sulfur and sulfur dioxide, and maximum levels have been established through the years. Biodesulfurization (BDS) could be a complementary technology to the commonly used physico-chemical process. BDS is based on the use of microorganisms f...
