Exploitable results

Microbial coal desulphurization has been tested on a pilot scale (50 cubic metres). The installation was built at the premises of ENICHEM, Porto Torres, Italy. Pulp densities of up to 40% weight per volume do not interfere with the first order kinetics. Residence time for 90% pyrite removal is around 5 days. The economics are marginal due to the high energy costs.
