Chloride ion tolerance and pyrite bioleaching capabilities of pure and mixed halotolerant, acidophilic iron- and sulfur-oxidizing cultures

© 2018 Elsevier Ltd The search for halotolerant acidophilic microorganisms to increase the efficiency of bioleaching processes in regions of fresh water scarcity has been ongoing for the past two decades. In this study, three pure cultures (V6, V8 and M8) and four enrichment cultures (14C, L2-21, L4...
