FIGURE 5.7 Bioweathering mechanisms.
In these regards, Chapter 6 presents impact of microbial activity on geochemical stability of Cu-slags.
The experimental conditions were designed such that the experiments simulate column-like set-up
with the solution residence time of 14 days. Bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa has deliberately been
employed due to its common presence in various environmental components that makes this specie
ideally suited as weathering agent.
