Title (up) Treatment of inorganic contaminants using permeable reactive barriers Type Journal Article

Abstract Permeable reactive barriers are an emerging alternative to traditional pump and treat systems for groundwater remediation. This technique has progressed rapidly over the past decade from laboratory bench-scale studies to full-scale implementation. Laboratory 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 demonstrated treatment of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, NO3, PO4 and SO4. Permeable reactive barriers composed of zero-valent iron have been used in full-scale installations for the treatment of Cr, U, and Tc. Solid-phase organic carbon in the form of municipal compost has been used to remove dissolved constituents associated with acid-mine drainage, including SO4, Fe, Ni, Co and Zn. Dissolved nutrients, including NO3 and PO4, have been removed from domestic septic-system effluent and agricultural drainage.

Title (up) Zeolites and their application in the decontamination of mine waste water Type Journal Article
Year 2006 Publication Informacion Tecnologica Abbreviated Journal
Volume 17 Issue 6 Pages 111-118
Keywords adsorption decontamination effluents industrial waste ion exchange metallurgical industries metallurgy mining mining industry porosity wastewater treatment zeolites zeolites decontamination mine waste water genesis porosity adsorption ionic exchange mineral metallurgical effluents mercury pollution artisan mining activities heavy metals removal metal mining effluents mercury vapors ovens fire amalgams Manufacturing and Production
Abstract This paper describes the genesis, structure and classification of natural zeolites, including their most relevant properties such as porosity, adsorption and ionic exchange. The use of natural zeolites in the treatment of effluents containing heavy metals is reviewed based on current literature. These uses are focused on mineral-metallurgical effluents and mercury pollution related to artisan mining activities. The study shows that natural zeolites are efficient in removal of heavy metals in metal mining effluents, can be produced and improved at a low cost, and can also be used to adsorb mercury vapors from ovens used to fire amalgams.
