The microbial community of a passive biochemical reactor treating arsenic, zinc and sulfate-rich seepage

Sulfidogenic biochemical reactors for metal removal that use complex organic carbon have been shown to be effective in laboratory studies, but their performance in the field is highly variable. Successful operation depends on the types of microorganisms supported by the organic matrix, and factors a...
