This review is from: Mineral Biotechnology: Microbial Aspects of Mineral Beneficiation, Metal Extraction, and Environmental Control (Paperback)
This new millennium belongs to biotechnology. Rapid progress is being made in minerals processing based on biological principles. Microorganisms can play a beneficial role in all facets of minerals processing, from mining to waste disposal and management. Biohydrometallurgical extraction of metals from a wide variety of ores is being commercially practiced all over the world and especially in Canada, the United States, Russia, South America, Australia, and Europe. The interactions among biotechnology, metals, and minerals are relevant to a number of emerging in interdisciplinary areas such as biogenesis and biomineralization, biomaterials processing and biomimetics, ceramics and biomedical engineering, biomineral beneficiation, bioleaching, biocorrosion, biofouling, biodeterioration, and bioenvironmental control. This book contains 18 articles divvied into four main sections titled Biobeneficiation; Bioleaching; Bioremediation; and Biominerilaztion. Written by industry experts, the book provides the technical knowledge necessary to complete in this arena by presenting specific detailed technologies and real-world case studies.
