چکیده
. The metal bioaccumulation potential of selected macroalgae species as different pH ranges were study for usage as part of a possible secondary passive AMD treatment technology in algae ponds in temperate regions during winter months. . Two separate studies were conducted to determine the suitability of macroalgae for passive treatment when metabolic processes in macrophytes and microrganisms in constructed wetlands decreases due to seasonal changes. In the field study, the bioconcentration of metals (mg/kg dry weight)

The potential of selected macroalgal species for treatment of AMD at different pH ranges in temperate regions.
The metal bioaccumulation potential of selected macroalgae species at different pH ranges was study for usage as part of a possible secondary passive acid mine drainage (AMD) treatment technology in algae ponds. Two separate studies were conducted to determine the suitability of macroalgae for passive treatment when metabolic processes in macrophytes and microorganisms in constructed wetlands d...

متن کاملGold, Silver and Iron in Iron Oxy-hydroxide Precipitate Formed in Process of Acid Mine Drainage
Oxidation of sulfide-containing ores is the main cause of Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), which is an environmental problem associated with both the abandoned and active mines. Iron-bearing sulfide minerals can be oxidized and form mine waters with high sulfate content, low pH, high electrical conductivity, high redox potential, and high concentrations of iron, aluminum, and other heavy metals. In th...
متن کاملDocumentation of traditional knowledge about wild medicinal plants of moist temperate Himalayas in Pakistan
The moist temperate Himalayas, as one of the major ecological zone of Pakistan, deserve specific attention to the conservation of environment and the sustainable development of natural resources. During the last hundred years, the area has been subjected to major structural changes leading to a decrease of about fifty per cent of the potential forest area. The decrease in forest cover, combined...
