Popis: | Optimal aeration conditions were determined and the effect of yeast extract on biooxidation of high-pyrrhotite sulfide ore flotation concentrate in the course of continuous cultivation of an acidophilic chemolithotrophic microbial community was studied in a line of four sequential laboratory reactors; the aeration rate was 3 L/(L min), yeast extract concentration was 0.02%. The gold recovery level was 96.45% at 2.23% elemental sulfur content in the solid residue. The dominant strains identified in the community responsible for biooxidation were Acidithiobacillus caldus OL13-1, At. caldus OL13-3 = At. caldus OL12-3, and an ‘Acidiferrobacter’ strain. Strains Sulfobacillus thermosulfidooxidans OL13-2 = S. thermosulfidooxidans OL12-1 and Ferroplasma acidiphilum OL13-4 = F. acidiphilum OL12-4 were isolated in pure culture and identified. |
