Title Magnesium hydroxide as a treatment for acid mine drainage in northern Minnesota Type Book Chapter
Year 1993 Publication Proceedings of the Annual National Meeting – American Society for Surface Mining and Reclamation, vol.10 Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 204-217
Keywords acid mine drainage acidification alkaline earth metals chemical properties cobalt copper drainage experimental studies hydroxides laboratory studies lime magnesium magnesium hydroxide metals Minnesota nickel northern Minnesota oxides pH pollution porous materials reagents remediation residence time trace metals United States waste disposal zinc 22, Environmental geology
Abstract Three alkaline materials were investigated for their suitability to treat acid mine drainage generated by a research facility located at a remote site in northern Minnesota. The materials investigated were hydrated lime, sodium hydroxide, and magnesium hydroxide. All three reagents were successful at raising pH and removing trace metals from the drainage, but the magnesium hydroxide had the added benefit of producing a maximum pH of approximately 9.5, while the other two reagents resulted in pH values of 12 and greater. In addition, the magnesium hydroxide was available as a high solid content slurry (58%) which simplified application and handling, and which produced the lowest volume of sludge of the materials tested.

Title Adding sodium hydroxide to study metal removal in a stream affected by acid mine drainage Type Journal Article
Year 1993 Publication Research Paper, US Department of Agriculture, Forest Service Abbreviated Journal
Volume 465 Issue 17 Pages
Keywords pH stream mine drainage remediation zinc copper sodium hydroxide USa Montana Beartooth Mountains Fisher Creek 3 Geology
Abstract Fisher Creek, a stream affected by acid mine drainage in the Beartooth Mountains of Montana, was studied to determine the extent to which copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) would be removed from stream water when pH was increased by a pulse of sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Although the pH adjustment study indicated that precipitated Fe(OH) “SUB 3” (am) could rapidly remove Cu and Zn from a stream affected by acid mine drainage, the pH should be maintained in an optimal range (7 to 8.5) to maximize removal by adsorption. -from Authors
