  2. Iron-oxidizing bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron-oxidizing_bacteria

    The anoxygenic phototrophic iron oxidation was the first anaerobic metabolism to be described within the iron anaerobic oxidation metabolism. The photoferrotrophic bacteria use Fe 2+ as electron donor and the energy from light to assimilate CO 2 into biomass through the Calvin Benson-Bassam cycle (or rTCA cycle) in a neutrophilic environment (pH 5.5-7.2), producing Fe 3+ oxides as a waste ...

  3. Siderophore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siderophore

    Phytoplankton require iron (provided by bacterial siderophores), and heterotrophic bacteria require non-CO 2 carbon sources (provided by phytoplankton). The dilute nature of the pelagic marine environment promotes large diffusive losses and renders the efficiency of the normal siderophore-based iron uptake strategies problematic.

  4. Biosand filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BioSand_Filter

    In laboratory studies, the biosand filter has been found to remove about 98-99% of bacteria. [7] In removal of Escherichia coli it was found that the biosand filter may increase due to biofilm formation over about two months. The removal after this time ranged from 97-99.99% depending on the daily water volume and percent primary effluent added.

  5. Enterobactin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterobactin

    Enterobactin (also known as enterochelin) is a high affinity siderophore that acquires iron for microbial systems. It is primarily found in Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. [1] Enterobactin is the strongest siderophore known, binding to the ferric ion (Fe 3+) with affinity K = 10 52 M −1. [2]

  6. Siderophilic bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siderophilic_bacteria

    Siderophilic bacteria are bacteria that require or are facilitated by free iron. They may include Vibrio vulnificus, Listeria monocytogenes, Yersinia enterocolica, Salmonella enterica (serotype Typhimurium), Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli. One possible symptom of haemochromatosis is susceptibility to infections from these species. [1]

  7. Septic drain field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_drain_field

    A septic drain field, a septic tank, and associated piping compose a septic system. The drain field typically consists of an arrangement of trenches containing perforated pipes and porous material (often gravel) covered by a layer of soil to prevent animals (and surface runoff) from reaching the wastewater distributed within those trenches.
