Abstract

Language:

In this article, a technological model for in-situ leaching of uranium deposits is presented, providing settlement data for forecasting and managing the leaching process. A numerical simulation of in-situ leaching (ISL) for uranium was conducted using the Comsol Multiphysics software package. Preliminary studies evaluated key hydrodynamic characteristics of wells and reservoirs, including the coefficient of resistance and saturation recovery, which help determine the effects of process variables during well operation. Currently, in-situ leaching serves as a crucial method for extracting multiple metals, with various ISL technology modes such as saturated, pressure filtration, and infiltration mode needing identification from measured process variables. The leaching process involves the dissolution of valuable components using chemical reagents directly at the ore body's location, followed by the removal of reaction compounds through solvent movement. A detailed analysis of hydrodynamic pressure fields, velocity fields, and mineral concentration distributions illustrated the effectiveness of the injection and production wells arrangement, revealing areas of stagnant zones where minerals dissolve more significantly over time.
