Bioleaching: Introduction, Methods, Application, Copper, Microorganisms, and Processes! Introduction to Bioleaching: Leaching process was first observed in pumps and pipelines installed in mine pits containing acid water. This process was later on employed for recovering metals from ores containing low quantity of the metal. Presently certain metals from sulfide ores and other ores are
#0183;#32;Bioleaching is the use of bacterial microorganisms to extract precious metals, such as gold, from ore in which it is an alternative to smelting or roasting, miners use bioleaching when there are lower concentrations of metal in ore and they need an efficient, environmentally responsible method to extract it. The bacteria feeds on nutrients in minerals, thereby separating the metal
Leaching is the process of a solute becoming detached or extracted from its carrier substance by way of a solvent.. Leaching is a naturally occurring process which scientists have adapted for a variety of applications with a variety of methods. Specific extraction methods depend on the soluble characteristics relative to the sorbent material such as concentration, distribution, nature, and size.

In contrast to the previously reported studies, the recent research on bioleaching suggests that base metal bioleaching from the waste at higher pulp densities is more economical [10, 20]. A recent study on microbial leaching of discarded cell phones has reported 99%, 56% and 29% recovery of Cu, Ni, and Zn respectively at 10% pulp density with pure iron oxidizers [ 17 ].
In bioleaching of pyrite there is an initial chemical leaching where Fe 3+ oxidises the mineral: 4FeS 2 + 4Fe 2 (SO 4 ) 3 12Fe(SO 4 ) + 8S The ferrous sulphate and elemental sulphur formed is then oxidised with the aid of microbes according to the following reactions:
#0183;#32;This work sought to integrate bioleaching and chemical leaching as a costeffective process to treat zinc sulphides. The continuous bioleaching of a sphalerite concentrate, assaying % Zn, % Pb, % S and % Fe with mesophile iron and sulphuroxidizing bacteria followed by chemical leaching of the bioleaching residue were assessed.
Microbial Leaching (Bioleaching, Biomining) Microbial leaching is the process by which metals are dissolved from ore bearing rocks using microorganisms. For the last 10 centuries, microorganisms have assisted in the recovery of copper dissolved in drainage from water.
Bioleaching is the extraction of metals from their ores through the use of living organisms. This is much cleaner than the traditional heap leaching using cyanide . [1] Bioleaching is one of several applications within biohydrometallurgy and several methods are used to recover copper, zinc, lead, arsenic, antimony, nickel, molybdenum, gold, silver, and cobalt .

Bioleaching techniques are often more effective than traditional mining applications and In indirect bioleaching, microorganisms are not in direct contact with minerals during the process. However, leaching agents are created temperature, and chemical elements. The 3 most common commercial biomining processes are: 1. Slope Leaching.
Abstract. This work sought to integrate bioleaching and chemical leaching as a costeffective process to treat zinc sulphides. The continuous bioleaching of a sphalerite concentrate, assaying % Zn, % Pb, % S and % Fe with mesophile iron and sulphuroxidizing bacteria followed by chemical leaching of the bioleaching residue were assessed.
