Title (down) Acid Mine Drainage Treatment Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication Ecosystem Management and Restoration Research Program Technical Notes Abbreviated Journal
Volume Erdc Tn-Emrrp-Sr-14 Issue Pages 7
Keywords AMD treatment sampling
Abstract Contaminated water flowing from abandoned coal mines is one of the most significant contributors to water pollution in former and current coal-producing areas. Acid mine drainage (AMD) can have severe impacts to aquatic resources, can stunt terrestrial plant growth and harm wetlands, contaminate groundwater, raise water treatment costs, and damage concrete and metal structures. In the Appalachian Mountains of the eastern United States alone, more than 7,500 miles of streams are impacted. The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission estimates that the economic losses on fisheries and recreational uses are approximately $67 million annually (ref). While most modern coal-mining operations (Figure 1) must meet strict environmental regulations concerning mining techniques and treatment practices, there are thousands of abandoned mine sites in the United States (Figure 2). Treatment of a single site can result in the restoration of several miles of impacted streams. The purpose of this document is to briefly summarize key issues related to AMD treatment. This document is intended as a brief overview; thus, it is neither inclusive nor exhaustive. The technical note presents the preliminary planning issues

Title (down) A quantitative approach to optimize chemical treatment of acid drainage using geochemical reaction path modeling methods: Climax Mine, Colorado Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication ICARD 2000, Vols I and II, Proceedings Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 1053-1058
Keywords mine water treatment
Abstract The Climax Mine, near Leadville, Colorado treats acid drainage in a lime neutralization chemical treatment system. Chemical treatment has been successful in reducing the concentration of metals to below surface water discharge effluent limits, but lime usage has not been optimized. A geochemical modeling approach has been developed to increase the efficiency of lime neutralization. The modeling approach incorporates two steps: (1)calibration, and (2) calculation of amount of lime needed to increase pH and remove metals. Results of our work quantify the lime treatment process and improve our ability to predict overall water quality.
