TL;DR: These findings contribute further understanding of struvite solubilization, element release and secondary oxalate formation, relevant to the biogeochemical cycling of phosphate minerals, and further directions utilizing these mechanisms in environmental biotechnologies such as element biorecovery and biofertilizer applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biorecovery of cobalt and nickel using biomass-free culture supernatants from Aspergillus niger.
TL;DR: Results showed that extracellular protein rather thanextracellular polysaccharide played a more important role in influencing the biorecovery of metal oxalates from solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct and Indirect Bioleaching of Cobalt from Low Grade Laterite and Pyritic Ores by Aspergillus niger
TL;DR: In this paper, the bioleaching efficiency and mechanism of recovery of cobalt and nickel from laterites and pyritic ores by Aspergillus niger were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colonization, penetration and transformation of manganese oxide nodules by Aspergillus niger
TL;DR: These findings contribute to an understanding of environmental processes involving insoluble manganese oxides, with practical relevance to chemoorganotrophic mineral bioprocessing applications, and represent the first demonstration of fundamental direct and indirect interactions between geoactive fungi and manganes nodules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective fungal bioprecipitation of cobalt and nickel for multiple-product metal recovery
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a basis for selective biorecovery of Co and Ni oxalates and phosphates using reactive spent Aspergillus niger culture filtrate containing mycogenic oxalate and phosphate solubilized from struvite.
