Abstract
Mössbauer investigations of the kinetics of iron-containing mineral formation in controlled conditions by thermophilic Fe(III)-reducing bacteria were carried out. Anaerobic bacterium (strain Z-0001) was isolated from the ferric sediments of hot springs Stolbovskie, Kunashir Island. This microorganism used the amorphous Fe(III)-oxide as an electron acceptor and acetate CH3COO− as an electron donor. Probes of solid phase processed by bacteria were sampled at different time intervals for the cultures incubated with 20 and 100% of CO2 in gas phase and studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The influence of physical and chemical conditions on the mineral phase formation was also investigated.
