✦ Synopsis

As a possible means of abatement of air pollution the use of thermophilic thiobacilli in lignite desulphurization has been investigated in lab-scale batch experiments and 50% organic sulphur 58% total sulphur removal has been achieved in 10% lignite slurries at 50°C.

The literature on microbial desulphurization of coal is reviewed so as to provide a compilation of the scattered information available on the salient features of this biogenic process. The review discusses, in turn, the types of microorganisms involved in coal desulphurization, the chemistry of the
