Evaluation of Rock Characteristics for Acid Water Drainage from Rock Muck
Surface/ground water pollution caused by the inflow of acid water enriched with heavy metals has become a serious environmental problem in the areas around mines [1,2]. This results from the sulfate discharge generated by the decomposition of pyrite contained in the altered rock in mining areas [3]. The same problem has arisen at engineering work excavation sites in recent years [4]. Therefore,...
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 کاملAssessment of two kinetic tests to predict the acid mine drainage in waste rock samples of a uranium mine
Acid mine drainage is the result of the oxidation process of sulfide bearing rocks. This process occurs when the sulfide material is exposed to atmospheric conditions. Under these conditions, successive oxidation reactions yield sulfuric acid generating acidic waters. This problem becomes more serious when the surrounding rocks are not able to neutralize the acid. The low pH condition of the dr...
متن کاملEstimating oxygen decay coefficient for acid generating waste rock 1
Measuring or predicting the distribution of oxygen concentration in waste rock underneath a soil cover is an important aspect of cover performance evaluation. The oxygen decay coefficient is a key parameter in the prediction. In the present study, a method calculating oxygen decay coefficient from oxygen consumption rate is developed. The decrease in oxygen concentration over time measured abov...
متن کاملAn Evaluation of Rock Integrity and Fault Reactivation in the Cap Rock and Reservoir Rock Due to Pressure Variations
Cap rocks are dams which can prevent the upward movement of hydrocarbons. They have disparities and weaknesses including discontinuities, crushed areas, and faults. Gas injection is an effective mechanism for oil recovery and pore pressure. With increasing pore pressure, normal stress is reduced, and the integrity of impermeable boundaries (cap rock, fault, etc.) becomes instable. A successful ...
