Title Biotechnologies for Remediation and Pollution Control in the Mining Industry Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication Miner. Metall. Process. Abbreviated Journal
Volume 17 Issue 2 Pages 105-111
Keywords bioremediation pollution control soil contamination solvents oils diesel hydrocarbons cyanide acid rock drainage microbial mats manganese bioremediation oxidation drainage removal water algae
Abstract As biotechnologies emerge from laboratories into main-stream application, the benefits they, offer are judged against competing technologies and business criteria. Bioremediation technologies have passed this test and are now widely used for the remediation of contaminated soils and ground waters. Bioremediation includes several distinct techniques that are used for the treatment of excavated soil and includes other techniques that are used for in situ applications. They play an important and growingrole in the mining industry for cost-effective waste management and site remediation. Most applications have been for petroleum contaminants, but advances continue to be made in the treatment of more difficult organ ic and inorganic species. This paper discusses the role of biotechnologies in remediation and pollution control from a mining-industry perspective. Several case studies are presented, including the land application of oily wastewater from maintenance workshops, the composting of hydrocarbon-contaminated soils and sludges, the bioventing of hydrocarbon solvents, the intrinsic bioremediation of diesel hydrocarbons, the biotreatment of cyanide in water front a gold mine, and the removal of manganese from acidic mine drainage.
