The microbiology of passive remediation technologies for mine drainage treatment
Water draining abandoned mines or mine sites is often acidic and contains relatively high concentrations of dissolved metals and sulfate. Such water (AMD) arises from the oxidative dissolution of sulfidic minerals, such as iron pyrite (FeS2), exposed by mining activities. As AMD production can occur over a very long time scale, passive remediation systems are becoming increasingly important in ...

متن کاملEcotoxicological endpoints for contaminated site remediation.
Use of chemical criteria in assessing the potential for adverse toxic effects in contaminated sites can under or overestimate the necessary level of site cleanup required. The use of ecotoxicity testing provides a more direct assessment of adverse environmental impact. A multi-trophic level soil ecotoxicity assessment was done on soil contaminated with crude oil distilled into five different fr...
متن کاملBio-Remediation of Acid Mine Drainage in the Sarcheshmeh Porphyry Copper Mine by Fungi: Batch and Fixed Bed Process
Acid mine drainage (AMD) containing high concentrations of iron and sulphate, low pH and variableconcentrations of heavy metals leads to many environmental problems. The concentrations of Cu and Mnare high in the AMD of the Sarcheshmeh porphyry copper mine, Kerman province, south of Iran. In thisstudy, the bio-remediation of Cu and Mn ions from acid mine drainage was investigated using two nati...
متن کاملAcid Mine Drainage Prevention and Control Options
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is one of most significant environmental challenges facing the mining industry worldwide. It occurs as a result of natural oxidation of sulphide minerals contained in mining wastes at operating and closed/decommissioned mine sites. AMD may adversely impact the surface water and groundwater quality and land use due to its typical low pH, high acidity and elevated concent...
