Enhancement of Biooxidative Leaching Copper Sulfide with Ultrasonic Wave Treatment
硫化铜矿超声波预处理提高细菌浸铜浸出率

The effect of ultrasonic wave on biooxidative leaching of copper sulfide mineral from Bainaimiao, Inner Mongolia is investigated. Thiobacillus ferooxidants (C-1 strain) is used and the shaking-bottle test is performed. The experimental results show that ultrasonic wave has the effect of promoting lixiviation rate. Increasing the time of ultrasonic wave action has more effect on larger mineral particles.
