  Title Study of comprehensive retrieval utilization and the treatment of acid mine wastewater Type Journal Article
  Year 1996 Publication Zhongnan Gongye Daxue Xuebao = Journal of Central South University of Technology Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 27 Issue (down) 4 Pages 432-435  
  Keywords acid mine drainage Asia China copper Far East heavy metals metals pH pollution sulfides utilization waste water water 22, Environmental geology  
  Abstract Impact of precipitating on removing harmful metal ion in the acid mine wastewater with pH neutralizer and sulfide was studied. The possible way of retrieving heavy metal ion in wastewater was probed. The techniques for lime carbonate to reject iron for hydrogen sulfide to precipitate copper and for zinc-lime cream neutralization flocculation to treat, mine acid wastewater were chosen. The final water quality may reach national effluent standard; the copper content was 32% in the sulfide slag.

  Title Wetland Treatment for Trace-metal Removal from Mine Drainage – the Importance of Aerobic and Anaerobic Processes Type Journal Article
  Year 1994 Publication Water Sci. Technol. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 29 Issue (down) 4 Pages 249-256  
  Keywords copper cobalt nickel zinc ion exchange sulfate reduction adsorption acid mine drainage passive treatment  
  Abstract When designing wetland treatment systems for trace metal removal, both aerobic and anaerobic processes can be incorporated into the final design. Aerobic processes such as adsorption and ion exchange can successfully treat neutral drainage in overlandflow systems. Acid drainage can be treated in anaerobic systems as a result of sulfate reduction processes which neutralize pH and precipitate metals.Test work on both aerobic and anaerobic systems has been conducted in Minnesota. For the past three years, overland flow test systems have successfully removed copper, cobalt, nickel and zinc from neutral mine drainage. Nickel, which is the major contaminant, has been reduced around 90 percent from 2 mg/L to 0.2 mg/L. A sulfate reduction system has successfully treated acid mine drainage for two years, increasing pH from 5 to over 7 and reducing concentrations of all metals by over 90 percent.Important factors to consider when designing wetlands to remove trace metals include not only the type of wetlandrequired but also the size of the system and the residence time needed to achieve the water quality standards.

  Title Gewässerschutz im Tagebau – sauberes Wasser in den Bach Type Journal Article
  Year 1994 Publication Steinbruch und Sandgrube Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 87 Issue (down) 4 Pages 32-33  
  Keywords Tagebau Ton=Mineral Grubenentwässerung Abwasserbehandlung Absetzbecken  
  Abstract In Tontagebauen sammelt man die durch Tonteilchen verunreinigten Niederschlagsmengen am tiefsten Punkt des Tagebaus und pumpt sie zur Reinigung ab, bevor sie dem normalen Wasserkreislauf wieder zugeführt werden. Die sedimentative Reinigung geschieht durch Tagebausumpf, Beruhigungsbecken und Absetzbecken mit Gegenstromprinzip. Im Tagebau Ludwig Hirsch der Firma Fuchs treten saubere, klare Niederschlagswässer oberflächennah am Tagebaurand aus. Sie werden zwischenzeitlich in Betonschächten gefaßt und über den nahen Vorfluter einem Gewässer dritter Ordnung zugeleitet. Damit werden die Erosion der Tagebauböschung verhindert, der Zentralsumpf entlastet und die Verschleißkosten an Pumpen reduziert. Die Pumpenschächte des Klarwassers werden in die Rückverfüllung eingebunden und so ausgebaut, daß langfristig ein störungsfreies Zufließen gewährleistet ist. Zum Schluß der Rekultivierung werden sie verfüllt.

  Title Solid wastes management in sulphide mines: From waste characterisation to safe closure of disposal sites Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Minerals and Energy Raw Materials Report Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 18 Issue (down) 4 Pages 25-35  
  Keywords Waste Management and Pollution Policy Pollution and waste management non radioactive geographical abstracts: human geography environmental planning (70 11 5) geological abstracts: environmental geology (72 14 2) waste disposal waste management solid waste mining industry acid mine drainage Europe Eurasia  
  Abstract Environmentally compatible Waste Management schemes employed by the European extractive industry for the development of new projects, and applied in operating sulphide mines, are presented in this study. Standard methodologies used to assess the geotechnical and geochemical properties of the solid wastes stemming from mining and processing of sulphidic metal ores are firstly given. Based on waste properties, the measures applied to ensure the environmentally safe recycling and disposal of sulphidic wastes are summarised. Emphasis is given on the novel techniques developed to effectively prevent and mitigate the acid drainage phenomenon from sulphidic mine wastes and tailings. Remediation measures taken to minimise the impact from waste disposal sites in the post-closure period are described.

  Volume 18 Issue (down) 4 Pages 9-11  
  Keywords Groundwater problems and environmental effects geomechanics abstracts: excavations (77 10 10) acid mine drainage environmental effect mine drainage  
  Abstract Water and wastewater treatment activities, projects and capabilities of South African environmental engineering specialist Envig are detailed. The company, as part of the Weir Wesgarth Consortium, has pre-qualified for the major Namibian Water Supply Project, one of the largest of its kind to date in southern Africa. This project involves the desalination of seawater to meet increasing water demand and shortfalls. Envig, if awarded the contract, would be involved in construction of three or four reverse osmosis or mechanical vapour compression sea water desalination plants and associated infrastructure. The company is also involved in a mine water desalination project at the Eskom Tutuka Power Station. A reverse osmosis plant using low fouling maintenance is being installed to deal with acid mine drainage water. Details of the design and operation of this plant are given.
