Bioshale FP6 European project: Exploiting black shale ores using biotechnologies?
2008
Abstract Bioshale is a project co-funded by the European Commission (FP6 programme) that started in October 2004. The main objective of the Bioshale project is to define innovative biotechnological processes for ‘environmentally-aware’ exploitation of black shale ores. Three black shale deposits have been chosen as targets of the RD – selection of biological consortia to be tested for mineral processing; – assessment of hydrometallurgical routes, including bioprocessing, for metals recovery; – technical-economic evaluation of new processes from mining to metal recovery including social and environmental impacts. An overview of the main results of the work in progress by the 13 European partners (from 8 countries) is presented.
