2021-5-1 The results showed that, compared to chemical leaching, bioleaching showed a much better performance. Indeed, copper bioleaching efficiency reached 94.3% on day 7 (21.1% higher than that of chemical leaching). The results also indicated that the process of bioleaching involved more mechanisms and reactions than that of chemical leaching.

2020-3-27 Abstract Copper recovery from printed circuit boards (PCB) from waste mobile phones was investigated using a two-step bioleaching process. The method consists of a first step where Fe(II) ions are biologically oxidised to Fe(III) by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. Later, Fe (III) ions are put in contact with the PCBs for copper solubilisation. At the conditions tested in the present work, the
