Study of the Adhesion Mechanism of <i>Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans</i> to Pyrite in Fresh and Saline Water

In the present work, the streaming potential of <i>A. ferrooxidans</i> and pyrite was measured in two environments: fresh and saline water (water with 35 g/L of NaCl) at different pH values. Also, attachment kinetics of <i>A. ferrooxidans</i> to pyrite was studied in fresh an...
