Acid mine water reclamation using the ABC process

Author: De Beer, Morris ; Maree, JP ; Wilsenach, J ; Motaung, S ; Bologo, L ; Radebe, V Date: Sep 2010 The gold mines on which much of South Africa’s wealth was founded are closed or closing. Mining concerns therefore have stopped pumping underground water from the mines which are filling with water (AMD) that is acidic, saline and vitiated ... Read more
Continuous decontamination of metal-polluted mine water using engineered hybrid adsorbent

Author: Muliwa, AM ; Onyango, MS ; Maity, Arjun ; Ochieng, A Date: May 2018 Mining industries contribute enormously to water pollution through discharge of effluents contaminated with metals. Metals-polluted water is a threat to aquatic and human lives as well as the general ecosystem. Numerous conventional treatment ... Read more
Fate of sulphate removed during the treatment of circumneutral mine water and acid mine drainage with coal fly ash: Modelling and experimental approach

Author: Madzivire, G ; Gitari, WM ; Kumar Vadapalli, VR ; Ojumu, TV ; Petrik, LF Date: Oct 2011 The treatment of acid mine drainage (AMD) and circumneutral mine water (CMW) with South African coal fly ash (FA) provides a low cost and alternative technique for treating mine wastes waters. The sulphate concentration in AMD can be reduced ... Read more

Integrated acid mine drainage management using fly ash

Author: Vadapalli, VRK ; Gitari, MW ; Petrik, LF ; Etchebers, O ; Ellendt, A Date: Jan 2012 Fly Ash (FA) from a power station in South Africa was investigated to neutralise and remove contaminants from Acid Mine Drainage (AMD). After this primary treatment the insoluble FA residue namely solid residue (SR) was investigated as a ... Read more
Preparation and characterization of gum karaya hydrogel nanocomposite flocculant for metal ions removal from mine effluents

Author: Fosso-Kankeu, E ; Mittal, Hemant ; Waanders, F ; Ntwampe, IO ; Ray, Suprakas S Date: Feb 2016 This research paper reports the removal of heavy metal ions from mine effluents using the gum karaya (GK)-grafted poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) incorporated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPs) hydrogel nanocomposite [i.e., ...
