Reductive Leaching Of Low Grade Manganese Ore Using Bamboo Saw Dust
Extraction of manganese (Mn) from low grade manganese ore (LGMO) through reductive leaching was studied in this research work. The reductive leaching process was done in acidic medium (H2SO4) and bamboo sawdust (BSD) was used as reducing agent. Mineral phase characterization on LGMO showed that the...
