A mathematical model of leaching reactors using the population balance is presented. The model incorporates the material balances for the reactants and products, the population balance which de- scribes the change in particle-size distribution, and the energy balance....
A mathematical model of bacterial leaching reactors is presented. The model incorporates the population (number) balance approach for the modelling of particulate leaching, the balance for the bacterial cell number, which includes populations of bacteria on the...
Leaching reactors have been described using three different approaches. These models are the overall mass balance, the population-balance model and the segregated-flow model. Each of these models has been used extensively without the relationship between them being...
