This book was released on 2020 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focused on highlighting the connection between the physical, chemical, sedimentary, and microbial aspects of various acid mine drainage settings of contrasting chemistry. In addition, a comprehensive thesis model was suggested to explain the interconnected relationships of this data set. The first 30 meters were evaluated for Pine Run (Fe), Esco No. 40 (Fe and Al), York Clay No. 4 (Mn), and Sines No. 2 (Al) coal mines. The acidophilic microbial taxa evaluated were Thiothrix sp.(any), Gallionella ferruginea, and Leptothrix discophora. Through principal component analysis (PCA) and a Spearman correlation matrix (n=20) a number of correlations were found to describe our model. The results of this study indicate a strong relationship between distribution of total Fe, and SO4, in the sediment due to physics of flow. Statistical analyses suggest precipitation of Mn into the sediments could occur at the medium-coarse sand (0.5-0.99 mm) grain size fraction and Fe likely precipitates as a larger grain size fraction than this. Both Thiothrix and G. ferruginea taxa shared a positive correlation with velocity, and L. discophora shared a negative correlation to flow velocity. Variable flow conditions within the first 30-meters of the mine opening can alter distribution of precipitates to deposit medium to coarse sand grain size fractions, reoxygenate waters, and alter pH to create supersaturated conditions for the minerals 4 basaluminite, amorphous Fe(OH)3, gibbsite, barite, and goethite. Results from this study also indicate G. ferruginea is likely favored in Fe contaminated systems, L. discophora could be the more abundant in Mn and Al contaminated mines, and SO4 contaminated drainage favors Thiothrix. Geochemical modeling results agree with water quality tests and field observations for each site

Download or read book Regional Cooperation for Water Quality Improvement in Southwestern Pennsylvania written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-04-04 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The city of Pittsburgh and surrounding area of southwestern Pennsylvania face complex water quality problems, due in large part to aging wastewater infrastructures that cannot handle sewer overflows and stormwater runoff, especially during wet weather. Other problems such as acid mine drainage are a legacy of the region's past coal mining, heavy industry, and manufacturing economy. Currently, water planning and management in southwestern Pennsylvania is highly fragmented; federal and state governments, 11 counties, hundreds of municipalities, and other entities all play roles, but with little coordination or cooperation. The report finds that a comprehensive, watershed-based approach is needed to effectively meet water quality standards throughout the region in the most cost-effective manner. The report outlines both technical and institutional alternatives to consider in the development and implementation of such an approach.

Book excerpt: Part of Groundwater Set - Buy all six books and save over 30% on buying separately! Biffaward Winner 2002 The Clean Rivers Trust has fought off stiff competition to become the Research and Development - Technology Category winner at the Biffaward Awards 2002, with its project "Technology Analysis of Acid Mine Drainage Treatment Methods". Minewater Treatment - Technology, Application and Policy, was produced based on the findings of the research to aid in the selection, design and implementation of the most appropriate treatment techniques for particular minewater discharges. Much work has been carried out in recent decades concerning minewater treatment, both in the UK and worldwide. Many different bodies and organizations are involved in developing minewater treatment processes and schemes. Minewater Treatment addresses the need for a single source of state-of-the-art information that draws all the latest research material together. Key features of the book include: a full literature review of minewater treatment throughout the world an overview of relevant legislation and policy in a global context a review of currently available methods for treating minewater worldwide a site specific inventory of minewater treatment schemes within the UK, including compilation of available monitoring data and assessment of performance a review of emerging and innovative minewater treatment technologies and consideration of related academic research within the UK a comprehensive list of active and innovative minewater treatment technologies that are not currently compiled in a book or other review publication a detailed summary and recommendations section assessing the applicability, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of minewater treatment schemes Relevant scientific subject matter is presented in a concise, easily accessible manner to assist with the objective assessment of the progress made to date. Heavily illustrated with many colour photographs, the book allows best use to be made of the collective experience of minewater treatment practitioners throughout the UK, whilst at the same time placing the UK experience within a global context. An invaluable reference work for mining companies, consultants, planning officers, environmental research scientists, environmental agencies, water utilities and regulatory bodies, Minewater Treatment is a definitive source of information on minewater treatment technologies and will help facilitate the selection of the most appropriate technique required to tackle particular minewater discharge problems.
