Abstract |
A mixed aerobic-anaerobic microbial treatment process was developed previously for acid mine drainage (AMD) using straw as a substrate. The process was effective only if AMD was supplemented with sucrose. The present study was conducted to determine which, if any, of three cellulosic materials could sustain the microbial treatment of AMD without the addition of a sucrose amendment and to determine the effect of the retention time on the performance of the reactors. The performance of small reactors that treated simulated AMD in the continuous mode was evaluated using alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) hay, timothy (Phleum pratense L.) hay, and straw with a 5 d retention time. Parameters measured were pH, Fe, Al, sulfate, and ammonium. Timothy hay and straw sustained AMD mitigation for 3 wk, and thereafter all activity ceased. After the reactors ceased treating AMD, the mitigative activities were reinitiated by the addition of sucrose, but not by urea. Alfalfa sustained AMD mitigation for a longer time period than either straw or timothy. The effect of three retention times, 3.5, 7, and 35 d, was then investigated for reactors containing fresh alfalfa. Increasing the retention time resulted in better metal removal and a greater pH increase. With a 7-d retention time, 75 L of simulated AMD were neutralized from a pH of 3.5 to a pH value greater than 6.5. Reactors operating with a 3.5-d retention time treated only 58.3 L of simulated AMD before failing. Ammonium was detected in effluents of active reactors. The results of this study indicate that a low maintenance microbial treatment system can be developed with alfalfa as a substrate without the addition of a sucrose amendment. |

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. |

Abstract |
Passive methods of treating mine water utilize chemical and biological processes that decrease metal concentrations and neutralize acidity. Compared to conventional chemical treatment, passive methods generally require more land area, but utilize less costly reagents and require less operational attention and maintenance. Currently, three types of passive technologies exist: aerobic wetlands, wetlands that contain an organic substrate, and anoxic limestone drains. Aerobic wetlands promote mixed oxidation and hydrolysis reactions, and are most effective when the raw mine water is net alkaline. Organic substrate wetlands promote anaerobic bacterial activity that results in the precipitation of metal sulfides and the generation of bicarbonate alkalinity. Anoxic limestone drains generate bicarbonate alkalinity and can be useful for the pretreatment of mine water before it flows into a wetland. Rates of metal and acidity removal for passive systems have been developed empirically. Aerobic wetlands remove Fe and Mn from alkaline water at rates of 10-20 g×m-2×d-1 and 0.5-1.0 g×m-2×d-1, respectively. |
