Abstract
Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) strain form and its sulfate-reducibility was identified after enrichment, separation and purification of SRB from some an-aerobic sludge of a uranium mine. The growth of SRB was stabilized 72 h after inoculation. The influence of inoculation quantity, pH, temperature, SO42- concentration on the growth of SRB was discussed. Sulfate treatment effect with 6.5 g/L SO42- concentration was 51.8 % in 15 days and 69.1 % in 30 days by SRB, respectively. Treatment effect of sulfate was 64 and 83 %, the one of uranium was 60 and 82.3 % from simulated wastewater by SRB and SRB + Fe0, respectively.
