Description of activities<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The laboratory conducts experimental research aimed at reproducing the processes of rock, mineral, and industrial waste weathering. Bio-weathering processes under the influence of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria), organic matter, and root exudates are simulated. The research is applied in developing remediation techniques for contaminated sites, and also contributes to the development of technology for the recovery of elements from secondary resources using biohydrometallurgical methods. The laboratory is fully adapted for controlled bio-weathering simulation (autoclaves, incubators, shakers, HACH spectrophotometer, microbiological centrifuge, Vortex, laminar flow chamber with UV, phytotron chamber).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
