Effects of Two Different Strains of Sulfur Oxidizing Bacteria on Arsenic Migration and Transformation in Arsenopyrite
,
The transformation of arsenic in hot springs is significantly affected by biotic sulfur oxidization. However, the effects of different types of sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms on arsenic transformation are still not well understood. In this study, it compared the effects of anthiosulfate-oxidized bacterium Anoxybacillus flavithermus DB-1 and anelemental sulfur-oxidized archaea Sulfolobus tengchong RT8-4 on arsenopyrite, a typical sulfur-arsenic-bearing mineral from hot springs. The results show that strain A. flavithermus DB-1 could oxidize 60% of As(Ⅲ) at an initial concentration of 0.1 mmol/L in two days, but not elemental sulfur at 50 ℃, pH 7.0-8.0. Strain S. tengchong RT8-4 was able to oxidize 54.3% of Fe(Ⅱ) at an initial concentration of 0.1 mmol/L within 8 days, but could not oxidize sulfur ions and arsenic under the conditions of pH 3.0 and 75 ℃. Co-culture of A. flavithermus DB-1 with arsenopyrite promoted the release of arsenic and sulfur, and the final concentration of arsenic released into the solution was 1.8 mmol/L, SO4 2- concentration was 10.4 mmol/L, and no secondary mineral was produced. With S. tengchong RT8-4, 12.8 mmol/L of arsenic, SO4 2- 87.7 mmol/L and 8.5 mmol/L Fe(Ⅲ) were released, and the secondary minerals such as jarosite, yavapaiite and scorodite were generated. These findings suggest that different sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms can affect arsenic migration and transformation in different ways in hot springs, which improves our understanding of arsenic and sulfur biogeochemistry in hot springs.
