Bioleaching of Metal-Polluted Mine Tailings: A Comparative Approach Between Ex Situ Slurry-Phase Stirred Reactors Versus In Situ Electrokinetic Percolation

Bioleaching of Metal-Polluted Mine Tailings: A Comparative Approach Between Ex Situ Slurry-Phase Stirred Reactors Versus In Situ Electrokinetic Percolation

This work compares two technologies for the remediation of metal-polluted mine tailings based on lab-scale bioleaching experiments performed in (a) conventional agitated slurry-phase reactors and (b) in situ electrokinetic percolation. While ex situ bioleaching in agitated reactors has been widely s...
