- Abstract:
- In order to intensify the kinetics of the bacterial-chemical leaching process ore, the main types and design features of reactors and reactor installations for implementing this process were analyzed. The existing systems for smooth regulation of pulp flow, aeration, thermostatting, control and automatic regulation of reactor parameters are analyzed. Based on an analysis of their advantages and disadvantages, a flow-type cascade reactor plant was designed and installed. For the installation, a system has been developed to regulate the parameters of the leaching process - temperature, pH of the mixture of pulp and bacterial suspension, frequency of mixing the mixture, aeration system, thermostatting.
