This review examines the acid and ferric sulfate bioleaching of uranium from low grade ores.
The review traces back the progression of the technology from the time the role of …

Long-term and continuous large-scale exploitation has increasingly exhausted shallow
metal mineral resources, and deep mining has become inevitable. The current global status …

Acid leaching has been widely applied to treat contaminated soil, however, it contains
several inorganic pollutants. The decommissioning of nuclear power plants introduces …

Hydrometallurgy is an efficient way of recovering metal ions from mineral ores where the
most important steps are the leaching of the minerals, the recovery and purification of metal …

To clarify the effect and mechanism of reservoir composite stimulation technology of blasting
and acidification for low permeability characteristic of sandstone-type uranium deposits, the …

The development of reactive transport soared during the 1990's, driven by the necessity to
demonstrate the long-term efficiency of radioactive waste repositories (Bildstein et al. 2019; …

Rare earth elements (REE), originally found in various low-grade deposits in the form of
different minerals, are associated with gangues that have similar physicochemical …

Acid in-situ leaching (ISL) can be used as a mining technique for in situ uranium recover
from underground. Acids and oxidants as lixiviants were continuously injected into a …

This study investigated, from practical and engineering perspectives, a systematic design
and its ability to remediate real U-contaminated soil, with the aim of assessing the …
