Rate-limiting step analysis of the microbial desulfurization of dibenzothiophene in a model oil system

A mechanistic analysis of the various mass transport and kinetic steps in the microbial desulfurization of dibenzothiophene (DBT) by Rhodococcus erythropolis IGTS8 in a model biphasic (oil–water), small-scale system was performed. The biocatalyst was distributed into three populations, free cells in...
