Nature news picked up an article that a Stachybotrys sp. can remove sulfur from crude oil and which would be more efficient than traditional chemical and heat methods. You may remember that some Stachybotrys are a nasty black indoor mold that can cause indoor air quality problems. It will be quite interesting to see more about this particular species once it has been better followed up.
