Abstract

Isolation and investigation of sulfate-reducing bacteria strains. Optimization of the gypsum conversion performances by physiological investigations, mutagenesis, cell immobilization and use of different electron donors (hydrogen, lactate, acetate). Study of the parameters conditioning the process application at industrial scale.
