ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS OF BIOHYDROMETALLURGY
Main Article Content
Abstract:
The article examines the environmental aspects of biohydrometallurgy as a modern and promising approach to mineral raw material processing. The main advantages of biotechnological methods compared to traditional metallurgical processes are analyzed, including reduced energy consumption and lower environmental impact. Special attention is given to potential environmental risks and measures to ensure environmental safety. The role of biohydrometallurgy in the development of environmentally sustainable industrial technologies is highlighted.
