Influences of pH and organic carbon on oxalate removal by alkaliphilic biofilms acclimatized to nitrogen-deficient and supplemented conditions
Accumulation of organic impurities (specifically oxalate) in Bayer liquor is a significant problem for alumina refineries. Microbial degradation is a low-cost solution to the problem, but hostile conditions of Bayer liquor (pH > 14 and nitrogen (N) deficiency) makes it challenging. The soluti...
