Ectothiorhodospira halochloris grows photoheterotrophically with a variety of sulfur sources. During sulfide oxidation to elemental sulfur considerable amounts of polysulfides may be accumulated transiently. When grown on elemental sulfur no sulfate was produced by oxidation, but sulfide and polysul
## Abstract Feasibility of elemental sulfur reduction by __Desulfovibrio desulfuricans__ in anaerobic conditions in a stirred reactor was studied. Hydrogen was used as energy source, whereas the carbonated species were bicarbonate and yeast extract. Attention was paid to reactor engineering aspects
