Iron recovery from acid mine drainage sludge as Fenton source for municipal wastewater treatment

Maha A. Tony et al.

Summary: Iron recovered from acid mine drainage can be used as an advanced oxidation processes source for municipal wastewater treatment. The experiments showed that the maximum COD removal reached 73% within 30 min of reaction time, and the reaction followed a second-order kinetic model with a low energy of activation barrier.

Attenuation of organics contamination in polymers processing effluent using iron-based sludge: process optimization and oxidation mechanism

Maha A. Tony et al.

Summary: This study investigated the feasibility of using iron extracted from acid mine drainage (AMD) as Fenton's reagent for removing organic pollutants from polymer and plastics manufacturing effluent. The optimal treatment conditions were determined using the response surface methodology, with an AMD iron concentration of 40 mg/L, H2O2 concentration of 500 mg/L, and pH of 2.2 achieving a removal efficiency of 98% for TOC removal.

Co-treatment of acid mine drainage and municipal wastewater effluents: Emphasis on the fate and partitioning of chemical contaminants

V. Masindi et al.

Summary: The co-treatment of real municipal wastewater and acid mine drainage showed effective removal of metals and sulphate from AMD, as well as nearly complete removal of phosphate from MWW. Different mineral phases were formed in the produced sludge, with key mechanisms including dilution, precipitation, adsorption, and crystallization.

A review of treatment technologies for the mitigation of the toxic environmental effects of acid mine drainage (AMD)

Joshua O. Ighalo et al.

Summary: This review article critically analyzes various treatment methods for acid mine drainage (AMD) in abandoned and active mines. Adsorption, membrane separation, and biological processes have been discussed with the potential reduction of ions in AMD. Among these, algal bioreactors in biological processes have shown to be the most effective in AMD treatment.

Effective treatment of acid mine drainage using a combination of MgO-nanoparticles and a series of constructed wetlands planted with Vetiveria zizanioides: A hybrid and stepwise approach

Beauclair Nguegang et al.

Summary: This study developed a hybrid approach using a nano-and-biotic system to treat acid mine drainage (AMD). The treatment process involved neutralization using MgO-nanoparticles (NPs) and polishing the water using a series of wetlands. The results showed that the system effectively removed metals and inorganic contaminants, and the product water met the standards for effluent discharge, demonstrating the potential for sustainable mine water management.

Insights into mechanisms governing the passive removal of inorganic contaminants from acid mine drainage using permeable reactive barrier

Ayanda Shabalala et al.

Summary: This study provides insights into the mechanisms governing the removal of inorganic contaminants from acid mine drainage (AMD) using a permeable reactive barrier (PRB). It highlights the crucial role of cementitious materials in the removal process and the importance of alkalinity in increasing the pH of AMD for precipitation of chemical species. The study also elucidates the role of gypsum in heavy metals attenuation. The findings contribute to the development of effective PRB for managing AMD and the receiving environment.

The Treatment of Acid Mine Drainage Using Vertically Flowing Wetland: Insights into the Fate of Chemical Species

Beauclair Nguegang et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that a vertically flowing wetland combined with Vetiveria zizanioides plants and soil substrate can effectively treat acid mine drainage by removing metals and sulfate chemicals. The substrate plays a significant role in metal removal, while plants and external factors also contribute to the reduction of chemical species. Prolonged assessment is needed to understand its long-term performance.

Recovery of phosphate from real municipal wastewater and its application for the production of phosphoric acid

V Masindi et al.

Summary: The study explored the concept of circular economy in municipal wastewater treatment by recovering phosphates for phosphoric acid production. Through experimental studies, it was found that ammonia and phosphates could be effectively removed, and valuable by-products generated, contributing to sustainable wastewater treatment. The process also showed potential for protecting freshwater ecosystems from eutrophication and addressing emerging concerns like water scarcity and phosphate shortage.
