In an attempt to explore the indigenous chromate resistant and reducing bacteria from chromite mine quarry seepage, 145 aerobic, heterotrophic bacteria were isolated from 14 mine seepage samples derived from chromite mines of Sukinda valley and Baula-Nuasahi belt in Orissa, India. A total of 109 isolates which were tolerant to 2 mM Cr(VI) showed different degrees of Cr(VI) reducing activ-ity in complex KSC medium and synthetic Vogel Bonner (VB) broth. Ten isolates belonging to genera like Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Alcaligenes, Cupriavidus and Corynebacterium were selected on the basis of their chromate reducing efficiency and it was found that they could reduce more than 50 and 75% of Cr(VI) in VB broth and KSC medium respectively. The sole Gram-positive isolate, Corynebacterium paurometabo-lum SKPD 1204 (MTCC 8730) showed maximum chromate reducing capacity in both VB broth (63.7%) and KSC medium (92%) and was capable of reducing nearly 95% of the total Cr(VI) in the mine seepage when it was grown in the mine seepage supplemented with 2% VB concentrate.展开更多

Effects of SiO2 content of silica sol, molding pressure, reaction temperature, reaction duration, and N2 flow rate on phase compositions and microstructure of result- ants were studied. The results show that using 7. 5 mass% SiO2 containing silica sol immersed sawdust as raw materials, the prepared Si3N4 powder is featured with high α-Si3N4 content, few impurities, etc. in the conditions of 1 450 ℃ of reaction temperature, 9 h of reaction duration, 400 mL ·min- 1 of N2 flow rate and 10 MPa of molding pressure.展开更多
