Abstract:
Thiobacillus ferrooxodans (T.f) were domesticated in in-situ leaching uranium mine and the effects test of coexisting ions such as SO
2-4、NO
-3、Cl
-、Zn
2+、Cu
2+、Mn
2+、Cr
3+、U、F
- etc.in solution on T.f activity have been investigated.The test results showed that the order of influence of different ions on bacteria activities was F
->U>Mn
2+>Cr
3+>Zn
2+>Cl
->NO
-3>SO
2-4 and the tolerant concentrations to SO
2-4、NO
-3、Cl
-、Zn
2+、Cu
2+、Mn
2+ and Cr
3+ were 32g·L
-1、3.2g·L
-1、3.2g·L
-1、0.40g·L
-1、3.2g·L
-1、0.40 g.L
-1 and 0.40g·L
-1 respectively and the most tolerant concentrations of ions were not still obtained.The tolerant concentration to U was 0.80g·L
-1.When the concentration of U was 1.60g·L
-1,bacteria lost activities and could not oxide Fe
2+ to Fe
3+.The bacteria activities were affected by F
- intensively.The tolerant concentration to F
- was only 20mg·L
-1.Domesticated bacteria have been used in field test of in-situ uranium leaching in Xinjiang.
