| Abstract | The results of researching of immobilization of iron-oxidizing bacteria on neutral carriers and usage for regeneration of sulphide oxidizer during leaching of nickel-pyrrhotine concentrate have been presented. The materials, capable to adsorbe more microorganisms have been determined. Their concentration and speed of iron bio-oxidation has been raised. It has been experimentally shown that realization of chemical leaching of sulphide concentrates separated from oxidant regeneration with immobilize biomass allow to essentially reduce leaching duration and raise metal extraction. |
