Investigating role of abiotic side and finding optimum abiotic condition for improving gas biodesulfurization using Thioalkalivibrio versutus [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a super toxic substance that produces SOx gases when combusted. Therefore, it should be removed from gas streams. Biodesulfurization is one of the developing methods for removing sulfide.

Biomimetic sulfide oxidation by the means of immobilized Fe(III)-5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphin under mild experimental conditions [PDF]
This paper describes the oxidation of inorganic sulfide to sulfate, minimizing the formation of elemental sulfur. The described catalytic reaction uses dilute hydrogen peroxide at nearly neutral pH values in the presence of a bioinspired, heterogenized ...

Biodesulfurization of high-sulfur oil from the Karazhanbas field of Kazakhstan with deep eutectic solvents [PDF]
The Karazhanbas oil field in the Mangystau region of Kazakhstan contains high-sulfur oil (1.6–2.2 %). It is known that sulfur negatively affects the operational properties of petroleum products, causes the corrosion of pipelines, and adversely affects ...

Syngas as Electron Donor for Sulfate and Thiosulfate Reducing Haloalkaliphilic Microorganisms in a Gas-Lift Bioreactor [PDF]
Biodesulfurization processes remove toxic and corrosive hydrogen sulfide from gas streams (e.g., natural gas, biogas, or syngas). To improve the efficiency of these processes under haloalkaline conditions, a sulfate and thiosulfate reduction step can be ...

Isolation and identification of a TetR family protein that regulates the biodesulfurization operon [PDF]
Biodesulfurization helps in removal of sulfur from organosulfur present in petroleum fractions. All microorganisms isolated to date harbor a desulfurization operon consisting of three genes dszA, -B and -C which encode for monooxygenases (DszA & C) and ...

Mitigating product inhibition in 2'-hydroxybiphenyl-2-sulfinate desulfinase (DszB) with synthetic glycosylation. [PDF]
Abstract The combustion of sulfur‐rich crude oil is toxic to the environment, making the removal of sulfur impurities a priority for the sustainable use of liquid fuels. Biodesulfurization via the 4S pathway is a promising approach due to its C‐S bond cleavage specificity and mild operating conditions.
