Intensified Bioleaching of Copper from Chalcopyrite: Decoupling and Optimization of the Chemical Stage

A one-stage process for the bioleaching of copper from chalcopyrite has a low leaching rate compared to the conventional smelting, pressure oxidation, and roasting routes, thus reducing the economic viability of the process. It is, therefore, crucial to optimize the process and the associated rate-i...
