Desulphurisation kinetics of thiophenic compound by sulphur oxidizing Klebsiella oxytoca SOB-1

摘要

Aims: The major aims of this study are to determine the capability of sulphur oxidizing bacterium (SOB-1) to desulphurize dibenzothiophene (DBT) and crude oil, detection of the reaction kinetics and identify the proposed pathway of DBT desulphurization.
