    [0002] Thiosal biooxidation procedure
    [0003]
    [0004] The present invention relates to a process for the elimination of thiosales in process waters such as the concentration of metal sulphide ores by grinding and flotation, which comprises an acidification stage under aerated conditions in the presence of Cu (II) followed by a Biooxidation in flooded fixed bed bioreactor characterized in that it is carried out with microorganisms of the genus Acidithiobacillus.
    [0005]
    [0006] Therefore, the present invention is located in the areas of knowledge of chemical engineering and biotechnology, particularly in the sector of mining and metallurgical activity in production plants of metal sulphide mineral concentrates by milling and flotation procedures.
    [0007]
    [0008] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    [0009]
    [0010] Liquors in industrial milling and flotation plants for the concentration of metal sulphide ores can accumulate thiosales, particularly when they contain pyrite (Druschel et al., Kinetics and Mechanism of Trithionate and Tetrathionate Oxidation at Low pH by Hydroxyl Radicals. Aquatic Geochemistry 2003, 00 : 1-20). In this case, it is necessary to purge the thiosales of the circuit since, from certain concentrations, their presence negatively affects the selectivity of the flotation.
    [0011]
    [0012] Thiosales are metastable chemical species that oxidize spontaneously with air, eventually forming sulfuric acid (Vongporm, 2008 Thiosalt behavior in aqueous media. MEng Thesis ,: Memorial University of Newfoundland). In developed countries, the discharge of process liquors containing thiosales is restricted because it is associated with an increase in acidity and a decrease in the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the receiving body (Dinardo and Sally, 1998 Treatment of thiosalts in milling effluent: A review of treatment process: Mining and Mineral Sciences Laboratories Report presented at Thiosalts Consortium-Phase II).
    [0013] The elimination of thiosales in process waters allows their reuse and / or discharge. This is possible by the oxidation of the thiosales to sulfuric acid and correction of the acidity generated by the addition of alkaline substances (Dinardo and Sally, 1998; Kuyucak, Mining, the environment and the treatment of mine effluents. Intemational Journal of Environment and Pollution, 1998, 10, 315-325; Kuyucak Waste Processing and Recycling IV, 2001, 481-495; Lu et al., Inorg. Chem. 2010, 49, 6026-6034). The oxidation of thiosales in solution has been tested by applying direct and indirect photolytic methods; ultrasonic irradiation; adsorption on iron hydroxides; use of various oxidizing agents such as ozone, oxygen, hydrogen peroxide mixture SO2 - air, Fe3 + - O2 and use of microbial catalysts. Of all these options the most industrially extended is that of natural oxidation by means of lagunaje.
    [0014]
    [0015] Oxidation with hydrogen peroxide is possible using mild operating conditions, being a fast and efficient process that does not incorporate foreign substances into the environment that need to be removed later; however, it requires the use of the Fenton reagent (Fe (II) H2O2) due to kinetic conditions (Lu et al., 2010), which eliminates the advantage described above.
    [0016]
    [0017] Natural oxidation in rafts is the most common industrial practice for the elimination of thiosales in process waters (Dinardo and Sally, 1998; Kuyucak, 1998, Kuyucak et al 2001). It is a passive treatment, without reagent and energy input requirements, in which the native bacterial flora catalyzes the oxidation of the thiosales with air. The rafts consist of large depressions in the terrain with large volume and large area. Being outdoors, there is a significant dependence between the effectiveness of natural oxidation in rafts and climatic conditions (Montes-Rosúa, Hydrometallurgy 2018, 178, 37-42). Likewise, the difficulties for the transfer of oxygen from the air to somewhat deep areas of the rafts, contribute to a very slow kinetics.
    [0018]
    [0019] Two fixed-bed bioreactors have been described on a laboratory scale to perform continuous bio-oxidation of thiosales:
    [0020]
    [0021] - Fixed bed bioreactor for percolation irrigation for thiosulfate biooxidation (Liljevqvist Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2011, Vol. 108, No. 6). Two types of bed have been used: activated carbon particles and plastic material structured. The bioreactor is inoculated with the Acidithiobacillus ferrivorans ferrooxidant species previously adapted to thiosulfate metabolization. The bioreactor is fed by the top with solution containing thiosulfate and the bottom with air enriched in carbon dioxide. Continuous operation requires the external contribution of microorganisms and does not reach stationary states. The maximum thiosulfate biooxidation rate is 0.32 Kg / hm3 when the bed is active carbon and 0.12 Kg / hm3 when the bed is plastics.
    [0022] - Flooded fixed bed bioreactor for ferrous ion bioxidation (Mazuelos et al Mineral Eng. 1999, 12, 559-564) adapted in situ to metabolize tetrathionate (Iglesias et al.: International Journal of Mineral Processing. 2016, Vol. 155 . P.
    [0023] 91-98). The bed consists of siliceous sand particles designed for ferrous biooxidation and equipped with ferrooxidant biofilms; when the reactor reaches steady state in the ferrous biooxidation, the feed is replaced by a solution of synthetic potassium tetrathionate.
    [0024]
    [0025] Thus, it would be desirable to have an effective and controlled procedure for the elimination of the thiosales from the waters for the concentration of metal sulphide ores to be able to reuse and / or pour the process waters, which is less expensive and does not involve environmental and visual impact.
    [0026]
    [0027] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
    [0028]
    [0029] The object of this invention is the development of a process for the elimination of thiosales in plant waters such as those from metal sulfide concentration facilities. These waters consist of acidic solutions that contain a mixture of thiosales such as polythionates, thiosulfate, and sulphite.
    [0030]
    [0031] In a first aspect, the present invention relates to a process for the removal of thiosales in waters of metal sulphide ore concentration processes by grinding and flotation, which comprises the following steps: a) chemical stage in which thiosulfate is removed by dismutation in acidic medium and in which sulfite is removed by oxidation reaction with oxygen catalyzed by cupric ion, obtaining waters containing polythionates in the absence of thiosulfate and sulphite;
    [0032] b) biological stage for the elimination of thiosales from the waters resulting from stage (a) by biooxidation with microorganisms of the genus Acidithiobacillus, and preferably Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans, at a temperature between 10 ° C and 34 ° C, in fixed-bed bioreactors flooded generating sulfuric acid and sulfate as products.
    [0033]
    [0034] Thus, the present invention describes a process for the oxidation of thiosales in real liquors of industrial plants, which consists of two stages. A chemical stage of acidification of the liquors in the presence of cupric ion under aerated conditions, resulting in the dismutation of the thiosulfate to sulphite and elemental sulfur, and the subsequent oxidation of the sulphite generated to sulfate. And a biological stage for the biooxidation of the rest of thiosales (polythionates) in fixed-bed bioreactors containing microorganisms of the genus Acidithiobacillus attached on particles. Regarding the procedures applied so far or in the development phase, this invention enables the oxidation of thiosal mixtures in industrial liquors in the fastest, most efficient, controllable and cheap way, without the need to use expensive reagents such as hydrogen peroxide and being Respectful with the environment
    [0035]
    [0036] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the process waters are characterized by being acidic solutions containing thiosal mixtures in concentrations of up to 8 g / L.
    [0037]
    [0038] Waters that can be treated by this procedure may contain thiosales in concentration up to 8 g / L. Of these 8 g / L, the concentration of thiosulfate can be up to 1 g / L, the remainder being thiosales: sulphite and polythionates (mainly trionate, tetrathionate and pentationate).
    [0039]
    [0040] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the process waters are characterized by being acidic solutions containing thiosal mixtures in concentrations of up to 8 g / L of which up to 1 g / L of thiosales correspond to thiosulfates and the rest of thiosales correspond to sulphite and polythionates, and preferably sulfite and polythionates selected from trionate, tetrathionate and pentationate.
    [0041] The pH value is typically less than 4. They can accompany Ca in concentration less than 1.5 g / L and heavy metals and metalloids (such as Cu, Fe, Co, Mn, Zn and As) in concentration less than 0, 2 g / L
    [0042]
    [0043] In another embodiment the invention relates to the process as defined above, where in step (a) the acidification is carried out up to pH close to 1.5 by the addition of sulfuric acid in the presence of cupric ion in concentration comprised between 5 and 20 mg / L per addition of copper sulfate, which is carried out continuously or discontinuously, in a reactor or a cascade of reactors in aerated stirred tank series.
    [0044]
    [0045] The chemical stage is carried out continuously or discontinuously and can be developed at room temperature in a reactor or a cascade of aerated series stirred tank reactors. At this stage, copper sulfate and sulfuric acid are added to the waters to be treated, until reaching a concentration of cupric ion between 5 and 20 mg / L and a pH close to 1.5 in the final mixture.
    [0046]
    [0047] The added acid catalyzes the thiosulfate dismutation reaction to sulfite and elemental sulfur.
    [0048]
    [0049] S 2 Ü 3 = + 2 H + ^ H 2 SO 3 + S AG = -1.49 kcal / mol.
    [0050]
    [0051] The added copper catalyzes the oxidation with air of the sulphite generated to sulfate.
    [0052]
    [0053] SO 32 " + V2 O 2 ^ SO 42 '
    [0054]
    [0055] Following these guidelines, the operating time or residence time in reactor or reactors for the complete elimination of thiosulfate and sulphite is less than 10 hours.
    [0056]
    [0057] In another embodiment the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the operating time of step (a) is less than 10 h.
    [0058]
    [0059] Although the optimum operating temperature of stage (b) is around 34 ° C, the recommended operating temperature should not exceed this value, since at 40 ° C, the efficacy of biooxidation for the microorganisms mentioned, It's void.
    [0060] In another embodiment the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the temperature at which step (b) is carried out is between 10 ° C and 34 ° C, and preferably 34 ° C.
    [0061]
    [0062] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where step (b) is carried out in a fixed bed bioreactor with two differentiated contiguous zones: a lower one devoid of a bed through which they enter and enter. they mix the feeding fluids (air and liquor containing thiosales) and, above it, a superior one containing the bed consisting of discrete particles arranged at random.
    [0063]
    [0064] The liquor and the air, forming bubbles, ascend through the bed. The liquid leaves the bioreactor through the spigot located at the top of the bed area.
    [0065]
    [0066] The liquors that feed the bioreactor cannot together contain polythionates and thiosulfate. Mixtures of these ions severely and irreversibly inhibit microbial action.
    [0067]
    [0068] The biological stage is carried out in a continuous fixed bed bioreactor. In this bioreactor two adjacent areas can be distinguished:
    [0069] - A lower one, without a bed, called a mixing zone. In it are located spikes for the entry of air and liquor from the chemical stage.
    [0070] - A superior, which houses the bed, called the bed area. It contains randomly packed particles. The shape of the particles can be diverse, preferably pseudospherical or cubic. The material of the particles may be siliceous sand, other ceramic materials, glass and plastic materials, preferably polyurethane foam. The particles rest on a support permeable to the passage of liquid and air.
    [0071]
    [0072] The microbial population in the bioreactor consists mostly of sulfooxidant species of the genus Acidithiobacillus (preferably Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans). The cells can be suspended in the liquid medium and mostly supported on the bed particles.
    [0073] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the bed support as well as any element of the reactor in contact with the liquid cannot be made of metal materials with a sulfate reducing character.
    [0074]
    [0075] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where a bed of particles of inert material is used in the medium.
    [0076]
    [0077] In another embodiment the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the bed of particles of inert material in the medium is selected from active carbon, pyrolytic carbon, polyurethane, siliceous sand, ceramic materials, glass and plastic materials.
    [0078]
    [0079] In another embodiment the invention relates to the method as defined above, where a fixed bed bioreactor is used in which the flow of air and liquid is ascending; the latter flooding the entire bed and leaving the upper part of it.
    [0080]
    [0081] In another embodiment the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the start-up of the fixed bed bioreactors is carried out in two consecutive stages:
    [0082] i) inoculation, where the bed particles are brought into contact with active inoculum of cells of the genus Acidithiobacillus and liquor, the thiosales oxidizing; and ii) recirculation where the bioreactor is connected to a tank that stores liquor containing polythionate mixtures in the absence of thiosulfate and sulphite and the contents of both devices are recirculated with complete oxidation of the thiosalts.
    [0083]
    [0084] The commissioning of the bioreactor follows a protocol that takes place in two stages:
    [0085] - Inoculation. At this stage the bed is impregnated with active inoculum of volume at least 10% of the hollow volume of the bioreactor. Subsequently, with the aeration connected, feed liquor is added until the bioreactor volume is completed. This stage concludes when the thiosales are exhausted. - Recirculation: The bioreactor is connected, through pipes for this purpose, with a stirred tank containing feed liquor, of at least volume Half the volume of the bioreactor. A pump drives the exchange of liquors between bioreactor and agitated tank in closed circuit, in recirculation. This stage concludes when the thiosales are completely exhausted.
    [0086]
    [0087] The correct implementation of this protocol leads to start-up times of less than one week; Once completed, the bioreactor can operate continuously.
    [0088]
    [0089] Operating continuously, the bioreactor is fed with liquor treated in the chemical stage. The bioreactor outlet liquor contains mostly sulfuric acid and sulfate; Biooxidation partially or totally depletes the thiosales from the chemical stage. Tetrathionate biooxidation, usually the most stable and abundant thiosal, takes place through the following chemical equation.
    [0090] S 4 O ¡ ~ + Y2 O 2 + 3H 2 O ^ 4 SO l + 6H
    [0091]
    [0092] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where step (b) ceases to be fully or partially operational when the feed contains thiosulfate in addition to polythionates.
    [0093]
    [0094] In another embodiment the invention relates to the method as defined above, where step (b) ceases to be fully or partially operational when it experiences an interruption of air supply.
    [0095]
    [0096] In another embodiment, the invention relates to the process as defined above, where the interruption of the air supply may have an irreversible effect.
    [0097]
    [0098] The commissioning of the bioreactor follows a protocol that takes place in two stages:
    [0099] - Inoculation. At this stage the bed is impregnated with active inoculum of volume at least 10% of the hollow volume of the bioreactor. Subsequently, with the aeration connected, feed liquor is added until the bioreactor volume is completed. This stage concludes when the thiosales are exhausted. - Recirculation: The bioreactor is connected, through conduits for this purpose, with a stirred tank containing feed liquor, with a volume of at least half the volume of the bioreactor. A pump drives the exchange of liquors between bioreactor and agitated tank in closed circuit, in recirculation.
    [0100] This stage concludes when the thiosales are completely exhausted.
    [0101]
    [0102] The correct implementation of this protocol leads to start-up times of less than ten days; Once completed, the bioreactor can operate continuously.
    [0103]
    [0104] Operating continuously, the bioreactor is fed with liquor treated in the chemical stage. The bioreactor outlet liquor contains mostly sulfate; Biooxidation partially or totally depletes the thiosales from the chemical stage. Tetrathionate biooxidation, usually the most stable and abundant thiosal, takes place through the following chemical equation:
    [0105] S4O¡- and 2 O2 + 3H 2O ^ 4 SO¡- 6H
    [0106]
    [0107] Throughout the description and the claims the word "comprises" and its variants are not intended to exclude other technical characteristics, additives, components or steps. For those skilled in the art, other objects, advantages and features of the invention will be derived partly from the description and partly from the practice of the invention. The following examples and figures are provided by way of illustration, and are not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

    [0109] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES
    [0110]
    [0111] FIG. 1 Conceptual diagram of the procedure object of this invention for the elimination of thiosales in industrial plant waters for the concentration of metal sulphide minerals. This procedure consists of two stages in series, a chemical, aerated with the addition of sulfuric acid and copper sulfate, for the elimination of thiosulfate by dismutation and sulphite by oxidation catalyzed by Cu (II), and a biological one, for aerobic biooxidation in fixed bed bioreactor populated by microorganisms of the genus Acidithiobacillus.

It consists of two parts: a hollow bottom for the entry and mixing of liquor to biooxidate and air, and one, on the previous one, consisting of a bed of randomly packed particles.
    [0114] EXAMPLES
    [0115]
    [0116] The invention will now be illustrated by tests carried out by the inventors, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the process of the invention.
    [0117]
    [0118] Bio-oxidation procedure of thiosales contained in a liquor of a metal sulphide mineral concentration plant
    [0119]
    [0120] Example 1:
    [0121]
    [0122] The liquor used in the procedure initially has a total thiosal concentration of 3761 mg / L. The thiosulfate concentration is 317 mg / L and the pH 2.81.
    [0123]
    [0124] The aforementioned procedure costs two consecutive stages, the first chemical and the second biological (Figure 1).
    [0125]
    [0126] Chemical stage
    [0127]
    [0128] The chemical stage is carried out in two agitated and aerated polypropylene tanks, connected in series operating continuously. The volume of each reactor is 200L, the feed rate being 60 L / h. In the first reactor the pH is adjusted with sulfuric acid to 1.52 and copper sulfate is added to reach a Cu (II) concentration of 20 mg / L. At the exit of the second reactor there is no thiosulfate, the total thiosal concentration being 3186 mg / L and the pH 1.56. This stage is carried out at room temperature.
    [0129]
    [0130] Biological stage
    [0131]
    [0132] The liquor collected in the chemical stage is conducted to a fixed bed bioreactor. This bioreactor consists of a vertical hollow column of methacrylate 2 m high and 6.4 cm in diameter in which two contiguous areas can be distinguished (Figure 2):
    [0133]
    [0134] - a lower one, lacking a bed, called a mixing zone. The mixing zone has a height of 7 cm. In her are located spikes for the entrance of air and of liquor from the chemical stage; Y
    [0135] - a superior one, which houses the fixed bed, called the bed area. The bed area has a height of 193 cm. The bed is constituted by 1cm cubic particles of polyurethane foam side, with a density of 23 kg / m3 and internal porosity 0.985, randomly packed. The bed is supported on a plastic porosity grid 0.4 located on the border of the mixing and bed areas where the particles rest. In the highest part of the bed area there is a spout for the liquor spillage.
    [0136]
    [0137] The bioreactor commissioning process takes place at a temperature between 10 ° C and 34 ° C and lasts 3 days. It is carried out in the two stages described below:
    [0138]
    [0139] - Impregnation stage. The bed is irrigated with 1L of inoculum. The inoculum consists of a culture enriched by successive reseeding from the native microbial flora of the process waters. The dominant microorganism in the inoculum is Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans. The rest of the bioreactor volume is occupied by liquor from the chemical stage and air bubbles. The aeration flow rate is 836 mL / min.
    [0140] - Recirculation stage. The bioreactor outlet is connected through pipes with a tank containing 8L of liquor from the chemical stage. The liquor contained in the tank is driven by a pump feeding the bioreactor. All this results in a closed circuit for the recirculation of liquors. Once the thiosales are exhausted, the circuit is opened and the bioreactor begins to operate continuously being fed by the liquor processed in the chemical stage.
    [0141]
    [0142] The continuous operation takes place in 40 days. When the liquor flow is 881 mL / h and that of air 836 mL / min, a thiosal concentration is reached at the exit of the bioreactor of 0.48 g / L, the bioxidation rate of the thiosales being in the bioreactor of 2, 38 g / h (0.37 Kg / h.m3).
    [0143]
    [0144] Example 2:
    [0145]
    [0146] Similar to the previous example by introducing modifications to the compositions of Liquors and equipment sizes. This is a liquor that initially contains a total thiosal concentration of 6800 mg / L, of which 850 mg / L is thiosulfate ion and 108 mg / L is sulfite ion. The pH is 2.80. The chemical stage is carried out at room temperature by adding 20 mg / L of cupric ion to the liquor. When the pH is adjusted to 1.5 with sulfuric acid, the thiosulfate and sulphite are removed in 6 hours and when the pH is adjusted to 1.25, thiosulfate and sulphite are removed in 4 hours. The biological stage is carried out in a bioreactor consisting of a vertical hollow column of methacrylate of 8.4 cm in diameter in which the mixing zone (figure 2) has a height of 5 cm and the bed area has a height of 10 cm. The bed consists of 1 cm cubic particles of polyurethane foam side, with a density of 25 kg / m3 and internal porosity 0.985. The bed is supported on a plastic porosity grid 0.4 located on the border of the mixing and bed areas where the particles rest. This bioreactor is inoculated with 80 mL of a culture whose predominant microbiological species is Acidithiobacillus thiooxidan, occupying the rest of the volume of the bioreactor with liquor from the chemical stage and by air bubbles. In the continuous operation, liquor treated in the chemical stage is fed at a flow rate of 129 mL / h, with the concentration of total thiosales at the exit of the bioreactor 1760 mg / L and pH 1.37.
