Abstract

A bacterial leaching was conducted for pyrite with Thiobacillus ferrooxidans(ATcC 19859) and Thiobacillus KY isolated from acid mine water around Kwangyang area to characterize the surface of substrate as reaction progress at the optimum condition under 9K medium for 3- days. It was found that the surface crystallinity changes referred to hkl plane was observed for 20 days leached by T. ferrooxidans similar changes also observed for 10 days leached pyrite by Thiobacillus KY. Based on he results of SEM-EDS the atomic ratios of Fe, S and Si on the surface were changed to sulfur rich phase but exposed Si ratio decreased from 16.94% to 4.85% during 30days mainly due to reprecipitating of Fe and S as a mixed compound.

공시균주인 Thiobacillus ferrooxidans(ATCC 19859)와 광양의 폐광산수에서 분리한 Thiobacillus KY를 이용하여 황칠광(pyrite, FeS2)에 대하여 30일간 침출반응하여 반응시간에 따른 황철광의 표변특성 변화를 관찰하였다. Thiobacillus ferrooxidans (ATCC 19859)의 경우 반응시간 20일 경과 후Thiobacillus KY는 반응 시간 10일 후 각각 황철광 표변에 결정구조의 변화가 관찰되었 다. FezS의 결합에서 S-Fe-S의 결합이 끊어점에 기언하는 [311] 평면의 상대적으로 감소와 침출시간 증가에 따른 [111]평면과 [220]의 상대적으로 노출의 증가의 특정을 나타냈다. SEM-EDS 결과 침출시키기 전의 시료는 Fe 36.97%, S 45.71%, Si 16.94% 이며 반응이 진행됨에 따라 황성분의 비율이 증가하였다. 또한 노출된 황칠광 위에 칩착물은 S 59.56%, Fe 38.9%, Si 1.53%의 원지구성비를 가진 물질이었다. 이러한 결과로 부터 침출이 진 행되면서 결정구조의 변화와 황과 철의 침착물에 의하여 황철광 의 표면이 비활성화된다는 결론을 도출할 수 있다.
