Comparison of the Biological and Chemical Synthesis of Schwertmannite at a Consistent Fe2+ Oxidation Efficiency and the Effect of Extracellular Polymeric Substances of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans on Biomineralization
Schwertmannite is an environmental mineral material that can promote the natural passivation of heavy metal elements, thereby reducing environmental pollution from toxic elements. However, the fundamental reason for the difference between the chemically (H2O2-FeSO4) and biologically (Acidithiobacill...
