S0 plays a crucial role in the natural geobiological cycle and human industry. The current production method remains to be advanced, yet the microbial process and organomineralization remain not fully understood. This study aims to reveal how environmental parameters and organics mediate S0 formation in both microbial processes and organomineralization, and use this knowledge to enhance the efficiency of targeted types of S0. Selected S0 can reduce time and economic costs for wastewater treatments; and produce batteries with higher power storage. The formation mechanism of lasting and stable organic membranes can facilitate geochemical studies of the sulfur cycle in early earth history. With the key proteins in the carbon membrane identified, the industry can produce conductive, stable protective carbon layers in large quantities as new material. Therefore, the proposed study has huge research value in earth sciences, biochemistry, wastewater treatment industry, and energy industry.

S 0在自然地球生物循环和人类工业中起着至关重要的作用。目前的生产方法仍有待改进，但微生物过程和有机矿化仍然没有完全理解。本研究旨在揭示环境参数和有机物如何介导微生物过程和有机矿化中的S 0形成，并利用这些知识来提高目标类型S 0的效率。选择S 0可以减少废水处理的时间和经济成本;并生产具有更高功率存储的电池。持久稳定的有机膜的形成机制有助于早期地球历史硫循环的地球化学研究。随着碳膜中关键蛋白质的确定，工业界可以大量生产导电、稳定的保护性碳层作为新材料。因此，该研究在地球科学、生物化学、废水处理工业和能源工业中具有巨大的研究价值。
