Prediction of Acid Mine Drainage Potential of Geothermal Solid Wastes
Geothermal solid wastes such as scale and sludge from the Philippines and Mexico containing Cu, Zn, and Pb at levels above earth's crustal abundance were studied for their acidification potential if disposed in a landfill. A batch reactor technique using the iron and sulfur oxidizing bacteria ThiobaciZlus ferrooxidans was developed for geothermal wastes to predict their acid mine drainage and b...
متن کاملAdvances in Acid Rock Drainage (ard) Characterisation of Mine Wastes
Research was carried out to improve acid rock drainage (ARD) prediction methodologies, focussing on resolving uncertainties in acid base accounting (ABA) methods. Advancements, their application, and interpretation are reported. Consideration of both net acid production potential (NAPP) and net acid generation (NAG) test results provide a more reliable routine screening technique than either te...
متن کاملPreventing acid mine drainage from mine tailings
Mining activity always has high impact on its surroundings, being waste deposition the cause of multiple and complex problems to the environment. One of them is Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), causing acid water percolation through large areas in the mine site. Portugal was a prosper tungsten producer from the beginning of the XX century, having its apogee during World War II. Nowadays there are mill...
متن کاملAcid Mine Drainage Prevention and Control Options
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is one of most significant environmental challenges facing the mining industry worldwide. It occurs as a result of natural oxidation of sulphide minerals contained in mining wastes at operating and closed/decommissioned mine sites. AMD may adversely impact the surface water and groundwater quality and land use due to its typical low pH, high acidity and elevated concent...
متن کاملRecovery of Metals from Acid Mine Drainage
Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) poses a severe pollution problem attributed to current and past mining activities. Low pH, high concentrations of sulphates and various heavy metals makes AMD treatment a major concern because of possible deleterious effects of the effluent on the surroundings. Treatment methods to address AMD focus on neutralizing, stabilizing and removing problem pollutants through va...
