  Title Removal and recovery of metal ions from acid mine drainage using lignite-A low cost sorbent Type Journal Article

  Keywords Geobase: Related Topics geobase: related topics (901) acid mine drainage adsorption ion iron sulfide lignite wastewater water treatment  
  Abstract Acid mine drainage (AMD), has long been a significant environmental problem resulting from the microbial oxidation of iron pyrite in presence of water and air, affording an acidic solution that contains toxic metal ions. The main objective of this study was to remove and recover metal ions from acid mine drainage (AMD) by using lignite, a low cost sorbent. Lignite has been characterized and used for the AMD treatment. Sorption of ferrous, ferric, manganese, zinc and calcium in multi-component aqueous systems was investigated. Studies were performed at different pH to find optimum pH. To simulate industrial conditions for acid mine wastewater treatment, all the studies were performed using single and multi-columns setup in down flow mode. The empty bed contact time (EBCT) model was used for minimizing the sorbent usage. Recovery of the metal ions as well as regeneration of sorbent was achieved successfully using 0.1 M nitric acid without dismantling the columns. < copyright > 2006 Elsevier B.V.

  Title Mine drainage treatment in Polish lignite mining Type Journal Article
  Year 1992 Publication Mine Water Env. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue 1 Pages 35-44  
  Keywords laboratory scale tests plants bogs biological filters open cut mining mine drainage filtration flocculation radiation particle size suspended solids water treatment water discharge field tests lignite mines poland mining and industrial water water treatment water quality  
  Abstract The paper presents volumes and characteristics of water discharged from some Polish lignite open pit mines and discusses methods for its treatment. Results of research work concerned with increase in mine drainage efficiency by using processes of radiation, flocculation and filtration through a set of bog plants, iknown as grass filter are also discussed
