A heavy metal-accumulating Citrobacter sp. was grown in carbon-limiting continuous culture in an air-lift fermentor containing raschig rings as support for biofilm development. Planktonic cells from the culture outflow were immobilized in parallel on raschig rings by chemical coupling (silanization)
Zirconium in aqueous ยฏows was moderately biomineralized by immobilized Citrobacter N14 cells, in the form of gel-like deposits, probably comprising a mixture of zirconium hydrogen phosphate (Zr(HPO 4 ) 2 ) and hydrated zirconia (ZrO 2 ).
