Nowadays, recycling Li-ion batteries is an important thing to do minimize the risk of exposure this hazardous solid waste. On other hand, extracting these materials can optimize economic potential valuable minerals in active cathode. Bioleaching was developed as environmentally friendly method extract cobalt from cathode by utilizing metabolic activity A. ferrooxidants cells. Microorganisms wer...

Bioleaching has been regarded as a green alternative to chemical leaching in metal extraction processes. In this study, the bioleaching properties of indigenous acidophilic bacteria for various sulfide minerals were compared and evaluated terms pH reduction leaching. The primary samples sphalerite (ZnS) (SP), galena (PbS) (GN1 GN2), pyrite (FeS2) (PY), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) (CCP), an bacterium,...

In this study, effects of solid concentration, temperature, and initial Fe2+ concentration on bioleaching of sulfide mineral (chalcopyrite) obtained from Sarcheshmeh Copper Mine in the region of Kerman located in the south of Iran were investigated. A mesophilic iron oxidizing bacterium, Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans has been isolated from a typical chalcopyrite copper concentra...
