Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRemediation of Heavy Metals by using Industrial Waste by Products in Acid Mine DrainageNuur Hani Mohammed, Mustapha Atta, Wan Zuhairi Wan YaacubAcid Mine Drainage (AMD) is one of the main important problems being combated today. Laboratory tank experiments were conducted to evaluate the use of industry waste to adsorb and control the mobilization of metals from contaminated acid mine water. The main physical conditions such as pH and treatment performance are displayed. The solution of acid mine were sampled from the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2017 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleBONE MEAL AS ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT FOR ACIDIC AND METAL CONTAMINATED ACID MINE DRAINAGE WATER EFFLUENT: LAB SCALECarolyn Payus, Olga David, Moh Pak YanThe typical methods of treatment for acidic and metal contaminated water effluent such as the Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) will always focus on either civil engineering methods, such as disposal, excavation, drainage and encapsulation or process based technologies such as effluent washing and treatment. These techniques are not environmental friendly, costly and unsustainable, thus environmental damaging. Nowadays, there is a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2014 · 7,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePrediction and Remediation of Water Quality in Monitoring Potential of Acid Mine DrainageNur Athirah Mohamad Basir, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Nuur Hani Mohammed et al.Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) associated with both active and abandoned mining operations related to sulfide minerals, oxidation of pyrite affording an acidic solution that contains toxic metal ions. Result shows that pH value of water in Kg. Aur, Chini and Sg. Lembing are acidic with value of 2.81, 4.16 and 3.60 respectively. Maximum concentrations of heavy metals in the study … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 24 May 2019 · 7,011 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Review of Static Tests and Recent StudiesSrilert ChotpantaratProblem statement: Acid mine drainage from waste rocks, tailings and other mine components, is one of the most important environmental concerns at mining sites. To attempt to determine the balance between the acid and neutralization potentials of the material and evaluate the possible acid-forming potential of mine waste, many static prediction tests have been developed to evaluate the acid-forming potentials … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 19 Apr 2011 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreliminary Tests Concerning Zero-Valent Iron Efficiency in Inorganic Pollutants RemediationSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiProblem statement: This study was aimed to a preliminary evaluation of the applicability of granular Zero-Valent Iron (ZVI) to the on site remediation of groundwater polluted by inorganic contaminants by means of a Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB). A particular interest was devoted to groundwater impacted by Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) that was caused by the oxidation of metal sulphide minerals … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,789 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsClimate Change Adaptation in Acid Sulfate LandscapesChuxia LinOxidation of sulfide minerals produces sulfuric acid and consequently creates Acid Sulfate Landscapes (ASLs), which represent one of the most degraded types of land-surface environments. Although acid sulfate-producing weathering is a naturally occurring process, it is markedly facilitated by human intervention. Mining is by far the dominant anthropogenic cause for the creation of inland acid sulfate footprints while land reclamation … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 7 Jul 2012 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
