Rate Kinetics on Bioleaching of Realgar Mineral by Leptospirillum ferriphilum: Effects of Fe (II) Concentration
Abstract:Abstract:The eco-friendly method of metal extraction, bacterial leaching is gaining more important in bio-hydrometallurgical industry. It is a proven method and can be applied for leaching process of several metals. This study was aimed to determine the efficiency of arsenic leaching from realgar mineral using the bacteria, Leptospirillum ferriphilum. The experiments were carried out in shaker flask, at fixed parameters 180 rpm, 0.2% pulp density (PD), 313 K at an initial pH of the media 1.5. The energy source… Show more
