Title Biological Detoxification of Precious Metal Processing Wastewaters Type Journal Article
Year (up) 1990 Publication Geomicrobiol. J. Abbreviated Journal
Volume 8 Issue 3-4 Pages 241-249
Keywords biofilm cyanide detoxification mining operation precious metals pseudomonas rotating biological contactors waste-water
Abstract A biological treatment plant is utilized at the Homestake Mine in Lead, SD, to effect detoxification of a daily discharge of 4 million gallons of wastewater. The wastewater matrix requiring treatment contains cyanide, ammonia, toxic heavy metals, anda variable component of toxic chemicals associated with extractive metallurgy and mining operations. Rotating biological contactors (RBCs) are used to attach the biofilm. Cyanides and heavy metals concentrations are reduced by 95-98%. The treated discharge makes up as much as 60% of the total flow in a cold-water trout fishery. This receiving stream, which remained lifeless for over 100 years as a mine drainage, has now become an established trout fishery and recently yielded a state record trout.

Title Mine drainage treatment and ferrite sludge application Type Journal Article
Year (up) 1991 Publication NEC Technical Journal Abbreviated Journal
Volume 44 Issue 5 Pages 4-16
Keywords ferrite applications mining water treatment mine drainage treatment waste water treatment ions metal recovery catalysts environmental problems solution ferrite sludge application iron oxidation bacteria ferrite formation process mine drainage Matsuo Mine magnetic marking materials magnetic fluid metal separation semiactive magnetic damper batteries fish gathering cement tracer Electrical and Electronic Engineering Manufacturing and Production
Abstract The `ferrite process' is an excellent method for treating waste water containing iron and arsenic, but cannot be directly applied to mine drainage where silicon and aluminum ions are present, because they strongly inhibit ferrite formation. As a result of the development of related technologies such as the elimination of silicon, the concentration of iron, and the oxidation of ferrous ions using iron-oxidation bacteria, a new ferrite formation process has been developed and applied to the mine drainage of the Matsuo Mine. The paper discusses the application of the ferrite sludge to magnetic marking materials, magnetic fluid for metal separation and recovery, and the semiactive magnetic damper is described. The related technologies which will be expected to play an important role in solving the environmental problems are also described. These technologies will change the ferrite sludge to beneficial materials, which can be used for carbon dioxide decomposing catalysts, reuse of dry batteries, fish gathering blocks, and cement tracer for ground improvement

Title The roles of spent mushroom substrate for the mitigation of coal mine drainage Type Journal Article
Year (up) 1994 Publication Compost Science and Utilization Abbreviated Journal
Volume 2 Issue 4 Pages 84-94
Keywords acid mine drainage rehabilitation coal mining spent mushroom substrate 3 Geology
Abstract Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) has been used widely in coal mining regions of the USA as the primary substrate in constructed wetlands for the treatment of coal mine drainage. In laboratory and mesocosm studies, SMS has emerged as one of the substrates for mine water treatment. Provided the pH of the mine water does not fall below 3.0, SMS can be used in the mitigation plan. However, neither Mn nor dissolved ferric Fe appears to be treatable using reducing SMS wetlands. Since after a few years much of the nonrefractive organic carbon in SMS wil have been decomposed and metabolized, carbon supplementation can significantly extend the life of the SMS treatment wetland and improve water treatment. -from Authors
