It works like carbon monoxide and cyanide.

It also occurs in sour crude oil.[2]<br /><br />Some sulfate-reducing bacteria play a role in the anaerobic oxidation of methane:<br />CH4 + SO42– → HCO3– + HS– + H2O<br />An important fraction of the methane formed by methanogens below the seabed is oxidized by sulfate-reducing bacteria in the transition zone separating the methanogenesis from the sulfate reduction activity in the sediments. This process is also considered a major sink for sulfate in marine sediments.<br /><br />In hydrofracturing fluids used to frack shale formations to recover methane (shale gas), biocide compounds are often added to water to inhibit the microbial activity of sulfate-reducing bacteria in order to avoid anaerobic methane oxidation and to minimize potential production loss."<br />-wiki<br /><br />Chick, where do you come down on the bacterial bloom?

I always manage to omit a meaningful detail.<br /><br />I'm glad it works out. I don't care about sequestration but Russ George does and I'm glad the possibility exists. I feel comfortable saying that because all the articles I looked at against it, some five or six, the con outnumber the pros vastly on this, none bothered elaborating the extraordinary success with salmon. They simply ignore it. Their interest is entirely climate change and no messing with environment in any way ever.<br /><br />Chip Ahoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12597726289890879627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-87686518984735301252014-04-23T00:38:48.908-04:002014-04-23T00:38:48.908-04:00It's interesting (to me) that iron (II) sulfat...It's interesting (to me) that iron (II) sulfate is fed to the system as ferrous and winds up ferric. <br /><br />I wrote of such <a href="http://comonocreerendios-lem.blogspot.com/2013/11/word-play.html" rel="nofollow">word play</a> here once.chickelithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10773887469972534979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-83471877341802280682014-04-23T00:26:59.304-04:002014-04-23T00:26:59.304-04:00What happens to all the sulfate?
