dc.description.abstract Fe(II) oxidation reaction was carried out using an acidophilic microorganism, Thiobacillus ferrooxidans. Four different parameters such as pH, Fe(II), Fe(III) and biomass concentration were studied. The oxidation reaction follows a pseudo first order rate equation. Apparent reaction rate constants were calculated. Unified rate equation was developed using the four parameters. Along with oxidation, a part of the iron also was precipitated. The extent of Fe(III) precipitation in each case was calculated.
