GUILHERME SALVADOR PERES NETO graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from São Paulo State University "Júlio de Mesquita Filho" (2022). During his undergraduate studies, he conducted scientific research (FAPESP) (2020-2022) at the Department of Biochemistry and Organic Chemistry at Unesp Araraquara. Currently, he is a master's student in the Chemistry program and conducts research in the field of Sanitary Engineering, focusing on the subarea of Wastewater Treatment, also at Unesp Araraquara.His current research project aims to understand how the toxic effect of heavy metals varies according to the substrate provided in sulfidogenic bioreactors. As part of his master's degree, he is involved in an internship and research program abroad at the University of Galway, where he studies the addition of a co-substrate in sulfidogenic reactors fueled with lignocellulosic substrate, aiming to improve the acclimation of sulfate-reducing microorganisms in continuous-flow reactors.

Using sulfate reducing bacteria for treatment and metal recovering from acid mine drainage (AMD) have been taking place for decades. However, the formation of small and non sedimentable particles, which are hard to recover, hinder this application in larger scale. The use of lignocellulosic material have been seen as a promissor strategy to overcome this problem and help with metal recove…
Biological sulfate reduction associated with chemical precipitation of metal sulfide is a promising strategy for acid mine drainage (AMD) treatment, and metal recovery. However, the formation of fine particles of metal sulphides in bioreactors makes their recovery difficult. The use of slow release electron donor could overcome this problem, since it would would prevent the formation of s…
Bioremediation using sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) is a promisor technology for acid mine drainage (AMD) treatment. Bioprocesses typically offer advantages like low energy consumption, reduced sludge production, and the potential for metal recovery. SRB metabolism generates sulfide, which can be employed to precipitate heavy metals from AMD. While SRB can be utilized in various methods,…
