[ 1 ] - The optimization of Cu and Fe bioleaching from converter slag using Acidithiobacilus ferrooxidans

The main objective of this work was to assess the optimization of Fe and Cu bioleaching from converter slag using Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. Important parameters that contribute to the bioleaching process include initial pH, initial Fe2+ concentration and pulp density. In order to optimize these parameters, the response surface methodology (RSM) was applied. The maximum...
