Title Biological Detoxification of Precious Metal Processing Wastewaters Type Journal Article
Year 1990 Publication Geomicrobiol. J. Abbreviated Journal
Volume 8 Issue 3-4 Pages 241-249
Keywords biofilm cyanide detoxification mining operation precious metals pseudomonas rotating biological contactors waste-water
Abstract A biological treatment plant is utilized at the Homestake Mine in Lead, SD, to effect detoxification of a daily discharge of 4 million gallons of wastewater. The wastewater matrix requiring treatment contains cyanide, ammonia, toxic heavy metals, anda variable component of toxic chemicals associated with extractive metallurgy and mining operations. Rotating biological contactors (RBCs) are used to attach the biofilm. Cyanides and heavy metals concentrations are reduced by 95-98%. The treated discharge makes up as much as 60% of the total flow in a cold-water trout fishery. This receiving stream, which remained lifeless for over 100 years as a mine drainage, has now become an established trout fishery and recently yielded a state record trout.

Title Constructed vertical flow aerated wetlands Type RPT
Year 1994 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords acid mine drainage; aeration; Butte Montana; carbonate rocks; case studies; clastic sediments; Clear Creek County Colorado; Colorado; construction; controls; fluid dynamics; gravel; heavy metals; Idaho Springs Colorado; limestone; Montana; pollution; rates; sedimentary rocks; sediments; Silver Bow County Montana; substrates; tailings; United States; waste water; water; water management; water quality; water treatment; wetlands 22, Environmental geology
Abstract In the report, wetland technology is described in which the main reactive layer is limestone gravel (rather than organic material) which is overlain by a fine gravel filter and soil. The three-year project included laboratory and field studies. Vertical aerated wetlands, simulated by columns, constructed in the field and in the laboratory, were operated during the project. The report presents a summary of results given in previous reports and summaries of results obtained using water from Butte, MT, and field studies at the Rockford Tunnel, near Idaho Springs, CO.
