Abstract

The kinetics of iron mineral formation by thermophilic dissimilatory iron reducing bacteria using Fe(III) amorphous hydroxide and acetate CH3COO− as an electron acceptor and donor, respectively, was investigated by Mossbauer spectroscopy. The effects of various physical and chemical conditions and the presence of an inert organic substance on the formation of biogenic minerals were considered. The production of magnetite due to microbial sulfate reduction by hyperthermophilic dissimilatory sulfate-reducing microorganisms was investigated by Mossbauer spectroscopy methods.
