Advances 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 کاملEvaluation 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 کاملMulti-Output Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System for Prediction of Dissolved Metal Levels in Acid Rock Drainage: a Case Study
Pyrite oxidation, Acid Rock Drainage (ARD) generation, and associated release and transport of toxic metals are a major environmental concern for the mining industry. Estimation of the metal loading in ARD is a major task in developing an appropriate remediation strategy. In this study, an expert system, the Multi-Output Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (MANFIS), was used for estimation of...
متن کاملProcess for Acidic Rock Drainage Treatment
The process using lignosulfonates for acidic rock drainage (ARD) treatment is referred to as the Lignor TM process. Lignosulfonates are waste by-products produced in the sulfite pulping process. The present study has shown lignosulfonates are able to protect lime from developing an external surface coating, and hence to favor its dissociation. Further, the addition of lignosulfonates to ARD sol...
متن کاملRole of Microorganisms in Mining: Generation of Acid Rock Drainage and its Mitigation and Treatment
Natural oxidation of sulphide mineral wastes during their disposal and storage at the mining sites may result in generation of acid rock drainage (ARD) that may contain high acidity and high concentrations of dissolved metals and sulphates. Due to its chemical composition, ARD poses potential harm to the environment and significant challenges to many mining industries requiring development and ...
