The reduction of vanadium can be realized by the wide range of aerobic, facultative anaerobic, obligate anaerobik microorganisms, which haven't been adapted to vanadates (compounds of vanadium) and other heavy metals, so the reduction is not specific process. Microorganisms are able to reduce vanadium (V) only to vanadium (IV). Reduction of vanadium to other redox forms, V (IV, III, II), is impossible because of a thermodynamic ban. Vanadates are not toxic for microorganisms (at a concentration at most 1000 mg/l). Unspecific microbial reduction of compounds of vanadium can serve as a base for the creation of a biotechnology for the purification of industrial wastes.
