Abstract:The capacity of the microorganisms in ore transformations makes bioleaching technique a very interesting alternative to conventional processes. Radiometric studies indicate high uranium contents in ore and waste samples. This paper describes the suitable fungus species for mobilization of U from low-grade U ores and their resulting wastes. The high bioleaching efficiency in waste samples is mainly attributed to the presence of high sulfate contents in these samples which converted by the aiding of microorganis… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
