Title Utilization of a ceramic membrane for acid mine drainage treatment Type Journal Article
Year 1997 Publication Tailings and Mine Waste '97 Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 453-460
Keywords acid mine drainage; Black Hawk Colorado; Central City Colorado; ceramic materials; Colorado; cost; disposal barriers; geochemistry; Gilpin County Colorado; heavy metals; mines; organic compounds; pollution; remediation; surface water; tailings; United States; utilization; volatile organic compounds; volatiles; waste disposal mine water treatment
Abstract BASX Systems LLC has developed a treatment system based on ceramic membranes for the removal of heavy metals from an acid mine drainage stream. This stream also contained volatile organic compounds that were required to be removed prior to discharge to a Colorado mountain stream. The removal of heavy metals was greater than 99% in most cases. A decrease of 30% in chemicals required for treatment and a reduction by more than 75% in labor over a competing technology were achieved. These decreases were obtained for operating temperatures of less than 5 degrees C. This system of ceramic microfiltration is capable of treating many different types of acid mine waste streams for heavy metals removal.

Title Treatment of dissolved metals using permeable reactive barriers Type Journal Article
Year 1998 Publication Groundwater Quality: Remediation and Protection Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue 250 Pages 483-490
Keywords adsorption; aquifers; attenuation; dissolved materials; metals; nutrients; oxidation; pollutants; pollution; precipitation; reduction; water treatment Groundwater quality Pollution and waste management non radioactive Groundwater acid mine drainage aquifer pollution conference proceedings containment barrier metal tailings Canada Ontario Nickel Rim Mine United States North Carolina Elizabeth City mine water treatment
Abstract Permeable reactive barriers are a promising new approach to the treatment of dissolved contaminants in aquifers. This technology has progressed rapidly from laboratory studies to full-scale implementation over the past decade. Laboratory treatability studies indicate the potential for treatment of a large number of inorganic contaminants, including As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Se, Tc, U, V, NO3, PO4, and SO4. Small scale field studies have indicated the potential for treatment of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, NO3, PO4, and SO4. Permeable reactive barriers have been used in full-scale installations for the treatment of hexavalent chromium, dissolved constituents associated with acid-mine drainage, including SO4, Fe, Ni, Co and Zn, and dissolved nutrients, including nitrate and phosphate. A full-scale barrier designed to prevent the release of contaminants associated with inactive mine tailings impoundment was installed at the Nickel Rim mine site in Canada in August 1995. This reactive barrier removes Fe, SO,, Ni and other metals. The effluent from the barrier is neutral in pH and contains no acid-generating potential, and dissolved metal concentrations are below regulatory guidelines. A full-scale reactive barrier was installed to treat Cr(VI) and halogenated hydrocarbons at the US Coast Guard site in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, USA in June 1996. This barrier removes Cr(VI) from >8 mg l(-1) to <0.01 mg l(-1).
