Abstract

Biological oxidation rates of CS₂ with a mixed microbial culture obtained from a trickling filter were optimal with 3 mM CS₂, pH 7, 30°C and SO₄^2- below 25 g l^-1. Degradation rates were 3.4 mg CS₂/g(protein)min and 13.8 mg H₂S/g(protein)min. The concentrations of intermediates (H₂S, COS and S°) and the product (SO₄^2- of CS₂ oxidation were measured. The biological oxidation was due principally to Gram negative bacteria.
