Sphalerite - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Electrobioleaching of Sphalerite Sphalerite dissolution under applied DC potentials was found to exhibit two peaks, one at -0.5 V (SCE) and another at +0.4 V (SCE), as shown in Fig. 9.16. An applied potential of +0.4 V (oxidative dissolution) resulted in 50% higher zinc dissolution compared to conventional bioleaching without applied potentials.
