  Title Treatment of acid rock drainage in a meromictic mine pit lake Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Journal of environmental engineering Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 132 Issue 4 Pages 515-526  
  Keywords Pollution and waste management non radioactive Groundwater problems and environmental effects geological abstracts: environmental geology (72 14 2) geomechanics abstracts: excavations (77 10 10) meromictic lake acid mine drainage mine waste copper water pollution Bacteria microorganisms Canada Vancouver Island British Columbia North America  
  Abstract The Island Copper Mine pit near Port Hardy, Vancouver Island, B.C., Canada, was flooded in 1996 with seawater and capped with fresh water to form a meromictic (permanently stratified) pit lake of maximum depth 350 m and surface area 1.72 km2. The pit lake is being developed as a treatment system for acid rock drainage. The physical structure and water quality has developed into three distinct layers: a brackish and well-mixed upper layer; a plume stirred intermediate layer; and a thermally convecting lower layer. Concentrations of dissolved metals have been maintained well below permit limits by fertilization of the surface waters. The initial mine closure plan proposed removal of heavy metals by metal-sulfide precipitation via anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria, once anoxic conditions were established in the intermediate and lower layers. Anoxia has been achieved in the lower layer, but oxygen consumption rates have been less than initially predicted, and anoxia has yet to be achieved in the intermediate layer. If anoxia can be permanently established in the intermediate layer then biogeochemical removal rates may be high enough that fertilization may no longer be necessary. < copyright > 2006 ASCE.

  Title Potential availability of anaerobic treatment with digester slurry of animal waste for the reclamation of acid mine water containing sulfate and heavy metals Type Journal Article
  Year 1988 Publication Journal of Fermentation Technology Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 66 Issue 1 Pages  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  Abstract The use of an anaerobic digester slurry of cattle waste for the reclamation of acid mine water was examined. When the digester slurry was mixed with acid mine water, anaerobic digestion, including sulfate reduction and methanogenesis, was enhanced. In the mixture of acid mine water and the digester slurry, sulfate reduction proceeded without diminishing methanogenesis. The digester slurry and its supernatant (SDF-sup) showed a significant capacity to act as a strong alkaline reagent, and the pH of the acid mine water was markedly elevated by the addition of the digester slurry of SDF-sup even at the low ratio of 1% (v/v). Precipitation of heavy metals in the acid mine water occurred as the pH was elevated by the addition of SDF-sup. When the digester slurry was added at the ratio of 5% (v/v) to acid mine water which had been pretreated with SDF-sup, the rate of sulfate reduction increased with increasing the concentration of sulfate in the mixture up to about 1,400 mg·l-1. In acid mine water pretreated with SDF-sup and supplemented with the digester slurry at the ratio of 5% (v/v), the maximum amount of sulfate reduced within 20 d of incubation was about 1,000 mg·l-1, and the maximum rate of sulfate reduction was about 120 mg SO42-·l-1·d-1.
