Microbial Processing of Metal Sulfides (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Donati, Edgardo R.; Sand, Wolfgang

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The application of microbiological methods to the extraction of metals from minerals is supported by several bioleaching and biooxidation processes operating in different sites over the world. This book details the basic aspects of the process with special emphasis on recent contributions regarding the chemical and microbial aspects of the bioleaching process and the use of microorganisms in the treatment of complex ores and concentrates.
