Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to an artificially compounded leaching bacterial community and application thereof in biometallurgy. Background Art
[0002] Biometallurgy is a technology that relies on the interaction between microorganisms and minerals to accelerate the oxidation and dissolution of minerals, and further recovers precious metals from ores or concentrates through separation, enrichment, and purification. Compared with traditional metallurgical technology, biometallurgy has the advantages of low energy consumption, environmental friendliness, and the ability to efficiently treat insoluble and low-grade ores. Discovering, collecting, and screening efficient, adaptable, and selective leaching bacteria is the key to conducting basic research and engineering applications in biometallurgy. Through the analysis of the microbial community structure of samples such as natural acid mine drainage, ores, and industrial leaching systems, it was found that the diversity of leaching bacteria in these environments is relatively rich. At the same time, a large number of research results show that the effect of mixed bacterial leaching is significantly better than that of a single strain, which provides evidence for the widespread application of mixed bacterial leaching and prompts researchers to conduct research on mixed bacterial leaching.
[0003] At present, the commonly used leaching bacteria in the field of biohydrometallurgy are mainly autotrophic mesophilic bacteria, the main representatives of which are Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans , Acidithiobacilus thiooxidans and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans Etc., their suitable growth temperature is 28-40℃. These mesophilic bacteria have been widely used in the biological extraction of metals such as gold, copper, and uranium. However, due to the high temperature generated by the oxidation heat of metallurgical microorganisms in the leaching tank and leaching pile during the leaching process and the stress of high concentrations of heavy metal ions in the leaching environment, the use of mesophilic bacteria for leaching has caused a series of problems such as limited bacterial growth, slow mineral leaching speed, low leaching rate, and the inability to continuously leach certain refractory ores such as chalcopyrite. Moderate thermophiles can overcome the above shortcomings. The optimal growth temperature of moderate thermophiles is 40-50℃, mainly including Leptospirillum ferriphilum , Acidithiobacillus caldus , Sulfobacillus spp. and Ferroplasma The use of moderately thermophilic bacteria for leaching can not only significantly improve the leaching reaction kinetics and shorten the leaching cycle, but also tolerate higher metal ion concentrations and slurry concentrations, and prevent the excessive passivation of some primary sulfide ores such as chalcopyrite from hindering the leaching reaction. Therefore, its application in industry has greater potential.
[0004] In addition, in the leaching system, autotrophic and heterotrophic leaching bacteria can affect each other through synergistic effects, thereby improving the metal leaching rate and leaching rate. The metabolites of autotrophic metallurgical microorganisms have an inhibitory effect on their own growth, while the heterotrophic bacteria in the mixed leaching bacterial community mostly use the metabolites and dead bacteria of autotrophic bacteria as growth energy, which can relieve this inhibition to a certain extent, increase the reproduction rate of autotrophic bacteria, significantly improve the leaching reaction kinetics, accelerate the reaction speed, and shorten the leaching cycle. Therefore, in theory, adding acidophilic heterotrophic bacteria that can decompose and utilize organic matter to the leaching bacterial community for mixed culture will help the growth of metallurgical microorganisms and thus improve the leaching rate and leaching rate.

[0013] The above-mentioned bacterial agent can be in various dosage forms, such as liquid, emulsion, suspension, powder, granule, wettable powder or water dispersible granule.
[0014] As required, surfactants (such as Tween 20, Tween 80, etc.), binders, stabilizers (such as antioxidants), pH adjusters, etc. may also be added to the above-mentioned bacterial agents.

[0043] The 9K inorganic salt medium was used, and its basic components were as follows: (NH4)2SO43.0 g / L, MgSO4∙7H2O 0.5 g / L, Na2SO4∙10H2O 0.15 g / L, KH2PO40.1 g / L, KCl 0.1 g / L, Ca(NO3)2∙4H2O 0.014 g / L.

Acidithiobacillus caldus FeSO4·7H2O was not added to the culture medium, but 10 g / L elemental sulfur was added instead.
[0044] A small amount of DNA was extracted using the TIANGEN bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit.

[0050] 2. Construction and domestication of bacterial flora The cells of the four leaching microorganisms in the logarithmic growth phase were counted under a microscope using a blood cell counting plate. 7 / mL, collect the bacteria by centrifugation, mix them in a certain proportion and add them into the reaction system of modified 9K inorganic salt medium, adjust the initial pH to 2.5 with 1:1 sulfuric acid, the experimental temperature is 45℃, add 10 g / L elemental sulfur and 5 g / L FeSO4·7H2O, and the mechanical stirring speed is 170 r / min. The bacterial community is domesticated and continuously subcultured by increasing the slurry concentration of sulfide ore in the leaching reaction system (1%, 3%, 5% and 10%). In the later stage of domestication, FeSO4·7H2O and elemental sulfur are no longer added.
[0051] After the acclimation was completed, the culture solution was centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 5 min to remove the solid matter, and then centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 20 min to separate the supernatant. The milky white precipitate at the bottom was the bacterial aggregate, which was diluted to 10 with sterilized iron-free 9K medium. 8 The composite leaching bacteria with a concentration of 100 / mL is the constructed artificial composite bacterial community, referred to as the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacterial community HM01, which is used for inoculation in leaching experiments.
[0052] The composition of the improved 9K inorganic salt medium is: (NH4)2SO43.0 g / L, MgSO4∙7H2O 0.5 g / L, Na2SO4·10H2O 0.15 g / L, KH2PO40.1g / L, KCl 0.1 g / L, Ca(NO3)2∙4H2O 0.014 g / L, yeast powder 0.2 g / L, glucose 0.2 g / L, and R2A 0.2 g / L.
[0053] Illumina MiSeg high-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the microbial community structure of the domesticated medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria HM01. The main steps were: the total DNA of the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria HM01 was extracted by CTAB / NaC1 method, the integrity of the extracted genomic DNA was detected by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, and the V4 / V5 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA was amplified with primers 515FB (5'- GTGYCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA -3') / 926R (5'- CCGYCAATTYMTTTRAGTTT -3'). High-throughput sequencing was performed using the Illumina Miseq sequencing platform to extract high-quality sequences, and the sequences were analyzed by bioinformatics to obtain the community structure and abundance.
[0054] The results showed that the dominant bacteria in the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacterial community HM01 were mainly thermophilic sulfur oxidizing bacillus 嗜热硫化氧化硫化芽孢杆菌 (85.29%)、Acidithiobacillus 嗜酸硫杆菌属 嗜热嗜酸菌 (7.11%)、Thermosiderin 嗜热铁原体 (0.02%) and Alicyclobacillus ferrooxidans 嗜铁 Alicyclobacillus (7.58%), and the population ecology remained relatively stable during the long-term domestication process.
[0055] The medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria community HM01 was deposited in the General Microbiology Center of China Microorganism Culture Collection Administration (CGMCC) on April 2, 2024, with the deposit number CGMCC No.30241.
[0056] Example 2: Experiment on leaching pyrite using artificial composite bacterial flora The leaching experiment of pyrite with artificial composite bacteria was carried out in a 500 mL conical flask. The leaching system was 135 mL of the above-mentioned improved 9K inorganic salt medium, 4.5 g of pyrite powder (3% slurry concentration, sieved with a 200-mesh sieve), and 15 mL of the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria HM01 culture medium (inoculation volume 10%, final concentration 10) was inoculated. 7 / mL), the shaker speed was 170 r / min, and the experimental temperature was 45°C. Samples were taken every 5 days, 3mL each time, filtered with a 0.22μm filter membrane, and the loss of leaching solution caused by sampling was supplemented with the same culture medium. ICP-OES was used to accurately analyze the metal elements in the leaching solution qualitatively and quantitatively. At the same time, a system with only ore and culture medium added but no leaching bacteria was used as a blank control, and a system with only the above-mentioned moderate thermophilic bacteria added was used as a blank control. 嗜热硫化氧化硫化芽孢杆菌 , 嗜热嗜酸嗜酸硫杆菌 and 嗜热铁原体 The mixed bacteria were treated in the same way as negative control.
[0057] The results are as follows Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is the relationship between the Fe leaching rate and leaching time of the artificially compounded medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria community HM01 when leaching pyrite. The ore sample used was commercial pyrite (purchased from Beijing Solebow Technology Co., Ltd.). After XRF analysis, the Fe grade of the ore sample was 41.19%, the Cu grade was 0.048%, and the S grade was 48.04%. It can be seen that after 30 days of leaching, in the blank control group without inoculation of bacteria, the leaching of pyrite (FeS2) was difficult to carry out, and the Fe leaching rate was only 3.34%; without adding iron-oxidizing Alicyclobacillus 嗜铁 AlicyclobacillusIn the negative control group, the Fe leaching rate was 60.93%; while when the medium-high temperature leaching bacteria HM01 of the present invention was used, the Fe leaching rate could reach 87.61%. The calculation formula of Fe leaching rate is: Fe leaching rate = amount of oxidized FeS2 / total amount of FeS2 × 100%; amount of oxidized FeS2 = total amount of Fe transferred into the solution by FeS2 × 2.1429.
[0058] This experiment shows that the leaching effect of Fe in pyrite is weak only by acid leaching, but the leaching effect of Fe is significantly enhanced by the action of leaching microorganisms. 硫化芽孢杆菌属 嗜热硫化氧化菌 , 嗜热嗜酸嗜酸硫杆菌 and 嗜热铁原体 Compared with the mixed bacteria, the addition of acidophilic heterotrophic bacteria ( 嗜铁 Alicyclobacillus )'s artificial composite bacterial community significantly enhances the Fe leaching effect through synergistic action.
[0059] Example 3: Experiment on leaching chalcopyrite using artificial composite bacterial flora The experiment of leaching chalcopyrite with artificial composite bacteria was carried out in a 500 mL conical flask. The leaching system was 135 mL of the above-mentioned improved 9K inorganic salt medium, 4.5 g of chalcopyrite powder (3% slurry concentration, sieved with a 200-mesh sieve) was added, and 15 mL of the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria HM01 culture solution acclimated in the above Example 1 was inoculated (inoculation amount 10%, final concentration 10 7 / mL), the shaker speed was 170 r / min, and the experimental temperature was 45℃. Samples were taken every 5 days, 3mL each time, filtered with a 0.22μm filter membrane, and the loss of leaching solution caused by sampling was supplemented with the same culture medium. ICP-OES was used to accurately analyze the metal elements in the leaching solution qualitatively and quantitatively. At the same time, a system with only ore and culture medium added but no leaching bacteria was used as a blank control, and a system with only the above-mentioned moderate thermophilic bacteria added was used as a blank control. 嗜热硫化氧化硫化芽孢杆菌 , 嗜热嗜酸嗜酸硫杆菌 and 嗜热铁原体 The mixed bacteria were treated in the same way as negative control.
[0060] The results are as follows Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2This is the relationship between the Cu leaching rate and leaching time of the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria community HM01 when leaching chalcopyrite. The ore sample used was commercial chalcopyrite (purchased from Ye's Stone Specimen Store, Huadong, Huadu District, Guangzhou). According to XRF analysis, the Fe grade of the ore sample was 27.47%, the Cu grade was 29.45%, and the S grade was 38.6%. It can be seen that after 30 days of leaching, in the blank control group without inoculation of bacteria, the Cu leaching rate was only 2.18%. This is because chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) is a primary copper sulfide ore with a relatively stable crystal structure and high lattice energy, which is difficult to be oxidized and decomposed by leaching bacteria. However, under the condition of leaching microorganisms, the Cu leaching rate was significantly improved, and without the addition of ferrooxidan alicyclic Bacillus ( Alicyclobacillus ferrooxydans ) in the negative control group, the Cu leaching rate was 45.99%; while when the medium-high temperature leaching bacterial community HM01 of the present invention was used, the Cu leaching rate could reach 72.66%. The calculation formula of Cu leaching rate is: Cu leaching rate = amount of oxidized CuFeS2 / total amount of CuFeS2 × 100%; amount of oxidized CuFeS2 = Cu in the solution transferred by CuFeS2 2+ Quantity×2.888.
[0061] Example 4: Experiment on leaching copper mine tailings using artificial composite bacterial flora The experiment of leaching a copper mine tailings with artificial composite bacteria was carried out in a 500 mL conical flask. The leaching system was 135 mL of the above-mentioned improved 9K inorganic salt medium, 4.5 g of a copper mine tailings powder (3% slurry concentration, sieved with a 200 mesh screen) was added, and 15 mL of the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria HM01 culture solution acclimated in the above Example 1 was inoculated (inoculation amount 10%, final concentration 10 7 The sample was taken every 3 days, 3 mL each time, filtered with a 0.22 μm filter membrane, and the loss of leaching solution caused by sampling was supplemented with the same culture medium. ICP-OES was used to accurately analyze the metal elements in the leaching solution qualitatively and quantitatively. At the same time, a system with only ore and culture medium added but no leaching bacteria was used as a blank control, and a system with only the above-mentioned culture medium added was used as a blank control. 嗜热硫化氧化硫化芽孢杆菌 , 嗜热嗜酸嗜酸硫杆菌 and 嗜热铁原体 The mixed bacteria were treated in the same way as negative control.
[0062] Figure 3The relationship between the Cu leaching rate and leaching time of the medium-high temperature leaching bacterial community HM01 when leaching a copper mine tailings. The ore sample used was collected from a copper mining area in Fujian Province. According to XRF analysis, the S grade of the ore sample was 7.43%, the Fe grade was 1.85%, and the Cu grade was 0.202%. It can be seen that after 18 days of leaching, the Cu leaching rate was 54.39% without inoculating bacteria; without adding iron-oxidizing alicyclobacillus ( 嗜铁 Alicyclobacillus ) in the negative control group, the Cu leaching rate was 73.43%; while when the medium- and high-temperature leaching bacteria HM01 of the present invention was used, the Cu leaching rate could reach 98.23%.
