Leach Kinetics Testing Question On Bottle Roll Tests

[Paybak89]

Hi,

I have a question about bottle roll tests. I dont have a roller but I do have 9 L glass jugs and a bench scale agitator.

To me that would achieve the same objective as a bottle roll test would. Would like to hear what you guys think?

I have tried to look for papers studying the statistics of the various testing methods but I had no luck.

My background is in Chemical Engineering, so while I am not quite familiar with specific "tried and tested" methods people use in the world of metallurgy, I know my reaction kinetics quite well. I'm actually trying to get bench scale data in order to model the reaction kinetics.

Thanks!

I would suggest you post in the chemical engineering forum135.

Done. Thanks for the suggestion!

Actually another forum regarding the leach test is the mining forum454.
