Oxidation of chalcopyrite by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans in shake flasks

Process Biochemistry, 2002
Abstract Chalcopyrite oxidation was evaluated with two acidophilic thiobacilli that are important in bioleaching processes. Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans in pure culture did not oxidize CuFeS2 but oxidized externally added S0 in the presence of CuFeS2.

Oxidation of isochemical FeS2 (marcasite–pyrite) by Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

Minerals Engineering, 2007
Abstract A research-grade mineral sample that contained marcasite and pyrite (FeS 2 ) was subjected to the oxidation by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans . Oxidation of FeS 2 by A. ferrooxidans produced acid, and the redox potential increased with sulfide dissolution and the oxidation of Fe 2+ .

Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and its potential application

Extremophiles, 2018
The widely distributed Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (A. ferrooxidans) lives in extremely acidic conditions by fixing CO2 and nitrogen, and by obtaining energy from Fe2+ oxidation with either downhill or uphill electron transfer pathway and from reduced sulfur oxidation. A.

Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and its potential application

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2019
Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans (A. thiooxidans) is a widespread, mesophilic, obligately aerobic, extremely acidophilic, rod-shaped, and chemolithoautotrophic gram-negative gammaproteobacterium. It can obtain energy and electrons from the oxidation of reducible sulfur, and it can fix carbon dioxide and assimilate nitrate, nitrite, and ammonium to satisfy

Heavy metals recovery from spent catalyst using Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans

2010 International Conference on Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 2010
In this investigation, a spent processing catalyst from one of the oil refineries in Iran was initially characterized physically and chemically. Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans were used to mobilize aluminum, cobalt, molybdenum and nickel from hazardous spent catalysts.

Adhesion forces between cells of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans or Leptospirillum ferrooxidans and chalcopyrite

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2012
The efficiency of copper leaching is improved by bacteria attached to chalcopyrite. Therefore, the study of the attachment mechanism to control leaching is important. The adhesion of three species of leaching microorganisms including Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans to chalcopyrite was ...

Bioleaching of anilite using pure and mixed culture of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus caldus

Minerals Engineering, 2007
Abstract Anilite oxidation was evaluated with two acidophilic thiobacilli that are important in bioleaching processes. The experiments were carried out in shake flasks in the absence and presence of energy sources such as 2 g/L powdered sulphur and 10 g/L Fe 2+ (as ferrous sulphate) at pH 2.0, 150 rpm, 35 °C. Tests showed that copper extraction in

Organoarsenic resistance and bioremoval of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

Bioresource Technology, 2010
The tolerance and bioremoval of dimethylarsinic acid (DMA(V)) by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (A. ferrooxidans) were investigated here. The inhibitory concentration (IC) of DMA(V) was determined for A. ferrooxidans. The effects of various parameters such as pH, contact time, initial DMA(V) concentration, biosorbent dose and temperature were ...

Bioleaching of metals from printed wire boards by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and their mixture

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2009
Bioleaching processes were used to mobilize metals from printed wire boards (PWBs). The bacteria Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (A. ferrooxidans) and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans (A. thiooxidans) isolated from an acidic mine drainage were grown and acclimated in presence of PWBs and then used as bioleaching bacteria to solubilize metals from PWBs.

Adhesion to metal sulfide surfaces by cells of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans

Hydrometallurgy, 2006
Abstract Attachment of four strains of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans to pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena, sphalerite or quartz was found to be mineral-selective. The bacterial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are responsible for mediating this process. Attachment of cells of A.
