Abstract

A method to separate metal from a source of ores by determining and modifying the values of the dielectric constant of the source includes steps of providing an acid leaching composition with a dielectric constant of at least 2% to 10% greater than the dielectric constant of the source and modifying the dielectric constant by incorporating an aqueous acid composition having a dielectric constant of at least 2% to 10% greater than the dielectric constant of the source, forming a mixture between the leaching composition and the source, submitting the mixture to stining and recirculation, providing the mixture with a supply of oxygen and ozone, where said supply has been previously submitted to treatment with ultraviolet light, allowing the dissolution of the metal to provide a composition comprising the solubilized metal Pregnant Leach Solution (PLS), and extracting the metal from the PLS solution.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and a system for reducing anions and cations in a liquid medium. The method is carried out by applying a technology of energy stimuli which uses the simultaneous application of electric and magnetic fields and electromagnetic radiation in various steps of a series of chemical and physical processes. Said method solves the problem of liquids having a high ionic charge.
