  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.

  Title Tracer tests as a mean of remediation procedures in mines Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Uranium in the Environment: Mining Impact and Consequences Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 817-822  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  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. Consequently, the knowledge about the hydraulic behaviour of the mine water within a 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, although 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.

  Title Remediation of acid rock drainage by regenerable natural clinoptilolite Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Water, Air, Soil Pollut. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 180 Issue 1-4 Pages 11-27  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  Abstract Clinoptilolite is investigated as a possible regenerable sorbent for acid rock drainage based on its adsorption capacity for Zn, adsorption kinetics, effect of pH, and regeneration performance. Adsorption of Zn ions depends on the initial concentration and pH. Adsorption/Desorption of Zn reached 75% of capacity after 1-2 h. Desorption depended on pH, with an optimum range of 2.5 to 4.0. The rank of desorption effectiveness was EDTAEDTA > NaCl > NaNO3 > NaOAc > NaHCO3 > Na2CO3 > NaOH > CeCa(OH)(2). For cyclic absorption/desorption, adsorption remained satisfactory for six to nine regenerations with EDTA and NaCl, respectively. The crystallinity and morphology of clinoptilolite remained intact following 10 regeneration cycles. Clinoptilolite appears to be promising for ARD leachate treatment, with significant potential advantages relative to current treatment systems.

  Title Potential availability of anaerobic treatment with digester slurry of animal waste for the reclamation of acid mine water containing sulfate and heavy metals Type Journal Article
  Year 1988 Publication Journal of Fermentation Technology Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 66 Issue 1 Pages  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  Abstract The use of an anaerobic digester slurry of cattle waste for the reclamation of acid mine water was examined. When the digester slurry was mixed with acid mine water, anaerobic digestion, including sulfate reduction and methanogenesis, was enhanced. In the mixture of acid mine water and the digester slurry, sulfate reduction proceeded without diminishing methanogenesis. The digester slurry and its supernatant (SDF-sup) showed a significant capacity to act as a strong alkaline reagent, and the pH of the acid mine water was markedly elevated by the addition of the digester slurry of SDF-sup even at the low ratio of 1% (v/v). Precipitation of heavy metals in the acid mine water occurred as the pH was elevated by the addition of SDF-sup. When the digester slurry was added at the ratio of 5% (v/v) to acid mine water which had been pretreated with SDF-sup, the rate of sulfate reduction increased with increasing the concentration of sulfate in the mixture up to about 1,400 mg·l-1. In acid mine water pretreated with SDF-sup and supplemented with the digester slurry at the ratio of 5% (v/v), the maximum amount of sulfate reduced within 20 d of incubation was about 1,000 mg·l-1, and the maximum rate of sulfate reduction was about 120 mg SO42-·l-1·d-1.
