  Title Use of a wetland system for treating Pb/Zn mine effluent: A case study in southern China from 1984 to 2002 Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Wetlands Ecosystems in Asia: Function and Management Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 1 Issue Pages 413-434  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  Abstract A constructed wetland system in Guangdong Province, South of China has been used for treating Pb/Zn mine discharge since 1984. In this chapter, the performance of this system in the purification of mine discharge, metal accumulation in different ecological compartments and ecological succession within the system during the period of 1984-2002 has been reviewed. The data show that the wetland system not only effectively remove metals (mainly Pb, Zn, Cd and Cu) and total suspended solids from the mine discharge over a long period leading to significant improvement in water quality, but also gradually increase diversity and abundance of living organisms.

  Title Mine water tracer tests as a basis for remediation strategies Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Chemie der Erde Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 65 Issue Suppl. 1 Pages 65-74  
  Keywords Mine water treatment Stratification Convection First flush Tracer tests Microspheres Reactive transport Groundwater problems and environmental effects Pollution and waste management non radioactive acid mine drainage remediation  
  Abstract Mining usually causes severe anthropogenic changes by which the ground- or surface water might be significantly polluted. One of the main problems in the mining industry are acid mine drainage, the drainage of heavy metals, and the prediction of mine water rebound after mine closure. Therefore, the knowledge about the hydraulic behaviour of the mine water within the flooded mine might significantly reduce the costs of mine closure and remediation. In the literature, the difficulties in evaluating the hydrodynamics of flooded mines are well described, but only few tracer tests in flooded mines have been published so far. Most tracer tests linked to mine water problems were related to either pollution of the aquifer or radioactive waste disposal and not the mine water itself. Applying the results of the test provides possibilities f or optimizing the outcome of the source-path-target methodology and therefore diminishes the costs of remediation strategies. Consequently, prior to planning of remediation strategies or numerical simulations, relatively cheap and reliable results for decision making can be obtained via a well conducted tracer test. < copyright > 2005 Elsevier GmbH.

  Title Constructed wetlands for minewater treatment: Environmental benefits and ecological recovery Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Water and Environment Journal Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 18 Issue 3 Pages 133-138  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  Abstract The ecology of the River Pelenna (in South Wales) was impoverished by polluted discharges from abandoned coal mines. A series of passive constructed wetlands was created in order to treat these discharges and to improve the ecology of the river. A three-year Environment Agency R&D project investigated the performance, environmental benefits and sustainability of the constructed wetlands. It showed that the treatment systems were removing most of the iron contamination. In the reaches downstream from the minewaters, the dissolved-iron concentration quickly dropped below the target level. Invertebrate abundance, trout and riverine bird populations increased in following years. However, occasional overflows from the systems have significantly affected the ecology of one stretch of river The research work has provided an insight into the potential for ecological recovery associated with future minewater treatment.
