摘要
利用嗜温混合菌Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans,Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans和Leptospirillum ferrooxidans对低品位复杂Cu-Zn-Pb-Fe-Ag-Au硫化精矿在曝气生物浸出反应器中进行生物浸出。该菌种为从塞尔维亚Bor地下铜矿的酸性溶液中筛选出一种嗜热嗜酸菌。营养液为p H 1.6的9K营养液。87%的矿物粒度大于10μm,矿浆密度为8%(w/v)。在测试条件下,锌、铜和铁的浸出率分别达到89%、83%和68%。动力学分析表明,浸出过程与Spencer-Topley模型相符,受局部反应扩散控制。
Bioleaching of low-grade complex Cu–Zn–Pb–Fe–Ag–Au sulphide concentrate (of Majdanpek ore body, RTB Bor, Serbia) was carried out in an aerated bioleach reactor in the presence of mesophilic mixed bacterial culture of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans, and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans. A mesophilic acidophiles culture was isolated from the acidic solution of the underground copper mine of Bor, Serbia. The nutrient medium was 9K at pH 1.6. 87% of the particles were <10 µm in size, with a pulp density of 8% (w/v). Bioleaching efficiencies of 89% for zinc, 83% for copper, and 68% for iron can be achieved in the examined conditions. Kinetic analysis shows that the change in leaching corresponds to the Spencer-Topley kinetic model for diffusion-controlled topochemical reactions.
