A novel isolated strain Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans BMSNITK17 has been investigated for its bioleaching potential from lateritic soil and the results are presented. System conditions like pH, feed mineral particle size, pulp density, temperature, rotor speed influences bioleaching potential of Acidithiobcillus ferrooxidans BMSNITK17 in leaching out iron from laterite soil. Effect of sulfate addition on bioleaching efficiency is studied. The bioleached laterite iron (BLFe's) on evaluation for its catalytic role in Fenton's oxidation for the degradation of ametryn and dicamba exhibits 94.24% of ametryn degradation and 92.45% of dicamba degradation efficiency. Fenton's oxidation performed well with the acidic pH 3. The study confirms the role of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans in leaching iron from lateritic ore and the usage of bioleached lateritic iron as catalyst in the Fenton's Oxidation.

is a Gram-negative bacterium that thrives in extreme acidic conditions. It has emerged as a key player in biomining and bioleaching technologies thanks to its unique ability to mobilize a wide spectrum of elements, such as Li, P, V, Cr, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, As, Mo, W, Pb, U, and its role in ferrous iron oxidation and reduction. catalyzes the extraction of elements by generating iron (III) ions in oxic conditions, which are able to react with metal sulfides.

Microalgae are recognized for their potential in the bioremediation of acid mine drainage (AMD), despite the challenges posed by AMD's low pH, high heavy metal content, and oligotrophic conditions. However, the impact of AMD chemoautotrophic microorganisms on microalgal growth and remediation efforts within AMD has been largely overlooked. This study aims to elucidate the effects the chemoautotrophic microorganism, Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, on the growth activity and metabolism of acid-tolerant microalgae, and to explore the molecular mechanisms of microalgal response.

Chalcopyrite has evolved into a crucial source of copper pollution, and xanthates inevitably coexisted with chalcopyrite in mine environments. However, the effect of xanthate on chalcopyrite bio-dissolution has not been illustrated yet. To fill this knowledge gap, the effect of potassium amyl xanthate (KAX) on copper release from chalcopyrite mediated by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans was investigated.

Selenium, a crucial trace element for many organisms, including prokaryotes and humans, is toxic at high concentrations, necessitating its removal from wastewater. This study investigates the use of jarosite, a naturally occurring iron sulfate mineral with excellent heavy metal attenuation properties, for selenate (Se(VI)) removal for the first time. Biogenic jarosite was synthesized through Fe(II) oxidation by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans at an initial pH ranging from 1.
