Impact of Pulp Density on Extraction of Metals, By Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans and Pseudomonas fluorescens from Bauxite Ore

, 2018
Mineral ores are the non-renewable resources of various metals. The extraction of metals is done only from the Ist and IInd grade ore particles and rest is left as such because of low metal content.

Review and Integrated Framework for Deep‐Sea Mineral Resources, Ecological Influence, and Future Development

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
As global industrialization advances and land‐based resources decline, deep‐sea resource development is becoming increasingly vital. The deep sea is rich in minerals such as polymetallic nodules, polymetallic sulfides, and cobalt‐rich crust. However, deep‐sea ecosystems and geochemical cycles can be severely impacted by extensive mineral mining.

Molecular Mechanisms of Plant Growth–Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) in Biofertilization and Disease Suppression of Crops

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial soil bacteria that colonize the rhizosphere and enhance plant growth through direct and indirect mechanisms, including nutrient solubilization, phytohormone production, suppression of phytopathogens, and activation of plant defense mechanisms.

A Trend‐Based Two‐Stage Framework for Tin (Sn) Recovery From Waste PCBs via Bioleaching and Thermally Activated Bentonite Adsorption

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study proposes a two‐stage, trend‐based framework for tin (Sn) recovery from waste printed circuit boards (PCBs) by integrating Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans–mediated bioleaching with thermally activated bentonite adsorption. Bioleaching performance was optimized using a central composite design–based response surface methodology (CCD‐RSM), which

Bioleaching Microbial Community Metabolism and Composition Driven by Copper Sulphide Mineral Type

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Bioleaching is a microbially mediated green technology for the recovery of metals from ore. Here, microbial consortia from a copper bioleaching column in Cyprus were cultivated on chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) and then sub‐cultured on chalcocite (Cu2S) and chalcopyrite to investigate how mineral type and surface chemistry influence microbial community ...
