Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to microorganisms able to reduce mercury ion to metallic mercury; in particular, it refers to systems, apparatuses such as a stirred bioreactor and methods for microbiological mercury removal from contaminated materials, such as, e.g., contaminated environmental matrices, like soil and sediments. The contaminated material is mixed with selected microrganisms capable to enable enzymatic reduction of mercury in ionic form to elemental mercury.
