The leaching process of Malaysian low grade manganese ore (LGMO) using bamboo sawdust (BSD) as reducing agent in acidic medium (H2SO4) and the dissolution kinetics of this ore was investigated. Acid concentration, reaction temperature, and BSD loading were chosen as experimental parameters through application of response surface methodology (RSM). For analysis of the kinetic data in this study, the SCM with surface chemical reaction and diffusion through product layer, the mixed control modelled and also new variant SCM were evaluated. The reaction kinetics of this leaching process was determined, and it is observed that it fits the model of 1-23X-(1-X)23=kt with activation energy of 69.3kJ/mol. The reaction rate for LGMO leaching using BSD was found to be diffusion through product layer.

Although the biological techniques application into sulfide minerals leaching to obtain valuable metals ​​is an important technological advance, the disadvantage of relatively slow kinetics bio-oxidation still limits its commercial application. However, it stimulates the research for constant improvement. Microorganisms are capable of performing their intended role with great efficiency under optimal conditions. Bioreactor design seeks to maintain certain environmental conditions that favour efficient microbial growth as pH, temperature, oxygen and carbon dioxide dissolution, stirring speed, etc. In an aerobic process such as bioleaching the optimum oxygen transference is extremely difficult to be achieved, because little oxygen dissolves in water. Furthermore the oxygen transference usually is facilitated by agitation, which is also required to mix the nutrients and maintain homogeneous solution, this transference is limited by the agitation speed because of the high power consumption, and the damage that undergoes the microorganisms submitted to excessive shear. In order to improve bio oxidation kinetics, in this paper we designed a new bioreactor, which combines elements of the stirred tank and airlift reactor, and introduces new elements, to their effective use in biohydrometallurgy. A new bio-reactor called RELBA was designed and build-up in the UNAM laboratories. It controls dissolved O2among other parameters and it prevents shear. Bioleaching tests of the ore, containing 0.135% Cu and 3.07% Fe, were performed in the orbital incubator and in theRELBAbio-reactor to 35°C using a mixed strain ofAcidithiobacilluscaldus,Acidihiobacillus thiooxidansandLeptospirillum ferriphilum, which confirm the advantages of the new bioleaching reactor.
