| Abstract |
Optimizing sulfate removal by a mixed anaerobic mesophilic culture fed glucose, linoleic acid (LA) and sulfate under several pH conditions was performed using a three factor three level Box-Behnken design (BBD). Based on the BBD approach, a statistical model was developed to predict the residual sulfate concentration. The LA concentration, initial pH and the COD/SO4(2-) ratio were the three experimental factors under consideration. Increasing the COD/SO4(2-) ratio increased the quantity of sulfate removed. The COD/SO4(2-) ratio showed the largest effect on reducing the sulfate level. Significant interactions between the three experimental factors were confirmed by the surface plots, interaction plot and ANOVA. An analysis of residuals verified accuracy of the model. Acetate and H2 production was dominant in cultures with the pH set at 6.0 and 6.75 and fed LA. After 168 h, butyrate and H2S were associated with the largest quantity of sulfate removed. At a D-optimality value of 1.0, a minimum response (residual sulfate concentration) of 36.2 mg L(-1) was recorded at 1500 mg L(-1) LA with a COD/SO4(2-) ratio of 2.18 and a pH set at 6.0. Based on the conditions under consideration, the model provided a useful approach for predicting the residual sulfate concentration in inhibited mixed anaerobic cultures. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 February 2013.
All research outputs
#22,759,452
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Water Research
#9,085
of 11,875 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#259,176
of 291,175 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Water Research
#37
of 87 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,875 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 5.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 291,175 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 87 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
