A dynamic analysis of chalcopyrite bioleaching was performed in continuous flow systems. In contrast to a previous batch analysis1 in which the influence of particle surface area on reaction rate was not accounted for, the unsteady-state change in pa

A study was undertaken to investigate the dynamics of chalcopyrite bioleaching. The analysis revealed significant dynamics features because the chemical leaching rate of chalcopyrite does not vary monotonically with solution redox potential but under

A typical bioleach heap is characterized by wide variation of temperature across the heap bed, leading to oxidation of target minerals occurring at different rates. Previous studies on the effect of temperature on the microbial oxidation of ferrous-i

Published models apply particle size to predict bioleaching reactor performance. In this study mathematical models predicting the overall reaction rate of a bioleach reactor system are developed to establish which particle parameters are necessary to

In heap bioleaching the dissolution of gangue minerals from igneous ore materials can lead to the build-up of considerable concentrations of Mg and Al sulphates in the recycled leach solution. This may interfere with microbial ferrous iron oxidation,

In view of the fact that the microbial oxidation of ferrous iron to the ferric form is an essential sub-process in the bioleaching of sulphide minerals, the development of a comprehensive rate equation for this sub-process is critical. Such a rate eq

The aim of this work was to determine whether or not the variable maintenance equation proposed by Neijssel and Tempest [Arch. Microbiol. 107 (1976) 215] and modified by Pirt [Arch. Microbiol. 133 (1982) 300] could explain the differences in the expe

The ferrous-iron oxidation kinetics of a bacterial culture consisting predominantly of Leptospirillum ferrooxidans were studied in continuous-flow bioreactors. The bacterial culture was fed with a salts solution containing 12 g/L ferrous-iron, at dil

The results of recent research have shown that the bioleaching of sulfide minerals occurs via a two-step mechanism. In this mechanism, the sulfide mineral is chemically oxidized by the ferric-iron in the bioleaching liquor. The ferrous-iron produced

The question whether the overall bacterial oxidation rate of a pyrite is determined by both the chemical reactivity of the pyrite as well as the affinity of a bacterial strain to the ferrous to ferric iron ratio, was examined. Bioleaching studies wer
