Bioleaching for metals removal from mine tailings flotation …
After the adaptation step, the mesophilic acidophiles consortium (10% v/v) was transferred to a 2 L – stirred bioreactor containing 10% (w/v) of a sample, and the bioleaching test ran over 14 days.As shown in Fig. 1 a and Table 2, the acidophilic consortium was able to efficiently leach the metals from the BT sample, for example …
