A limited number of research groups in the state of São Paulo (and Brazil as a whole) carry out applied microbiology research focused on the taxonomic characterization and technological exploration of the indigenous microbial diversity. Some of these include bioremediation of organochloride-polluted areas, biodigestion of recalcitrant compounds in industrial effluents, biological nitrogen…
Climate change of anthropogenic source is caused by the increase of the emission of greenhouse gases, inducing changes in the temperature and the rainfall worldwide. In Brazil, it is estimate that the increase in CO2 concentration will promote an increase in the average temperature and drought in determined regions, such as in the north and northeast, while, in other regions, such as in t…
Mining in Brazil has highlighted its importance when it is considered the geodiversity, the range of different ores produced and the large investments that the sector will receive in coming years. Copper appears as a fundamental raw material for the development and maintenance of several national industries and as one of the major exported ore. The most employed processing of ores are pyr…
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is an environmental disturbing caused by mining and consists in a percolating acidic, rich in metals, sulfur, low in nutrients solution and provides an advantageous environment for the interesting growth of bacteria and for the study of microbial community and bioleaching. The objective is to evaluate the bacterial community of DAM by pyrosequencing and identify i…
