Book excerpt: Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a common byproduct of mining that has severely degraded many streams world-wide. In coal mining, AMD occurs when pyrite contained in coal is exposed to water and air during mining activities and oxidized to release high concentrations of sulfate, metals, and acid into water bodies. Controls on concentration-discharge (CQ) relationships of solutes in AMD-impacted streams remain unclear due to the complicated nature of acid mine drainage systems. For example, streams may receive inputs from multiple sources including runoff, outflow from constructed treatment systems, and abandoned mines that bypass these systems to continue to contaminate the streams. It is important to understand the CQ relationships of contaminants in AMD-impacted streams in order to elucidate contaminant sources and to predict effects on aquatic ecosystems under different flow regimes. Here, we study the CQ behaviors of acid, metals, and sulfate in an AMD-contaminated watershed in northeastern Ohio where a treatment system has been installed to remediate water draining from a mine pool into the stream. The treatment system includes a series of limestone channels and settling ponds designed to increase drainage pH and promote precipitation of Fe- and Mn-oxides. Stream chemistry was measured in samples collected approximately once per day from March through November and hourly during select storm events. Stream flow was measured continuously at the watershed outlet. Contaminant concentrations in the stream generally decreased with increasing stream discharge due to inputs from the treatment system that only occurred at high flow. A decrease in pH from March (~6) through November (~3) was concurrent with a decrease in stream discharge and declining inputs from the treatment system. Correspondingly, AMD-derived contaminants (Fe, Mn, Al) increased in concentration from March through November. These trends reflect mixing of contaminated baseflow and intermittent inputs from the treatment system, indicating that the treatment system is only effective at neutralizing stream acidity and removing metals when flow is present. We determine that constructed treatment systems can act as ephemeral tributaries to the stream and control CQ behavior at the stream outlet.

This book was released on 2014-04-28 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides the tools needed to analyze and solve acid drainage problems Featuring contributions from leading experts in science and engineering, this book explores the complex biogeochemistry of acid mine drainage, rock drainage, and acid sulfate soils. It describes how to predict, prevent, and remediate the environmental impact of acid drainage and the oxidation of sulfides, offering the latest sampling and analytical methods. Moreover, readers will discover new approaches for recovering valuable resources from acid mine drainage, including bioleaching. Acid Mine Drainage, Rock Drainage, and Acid Sulfate Soils reviews the most current findings in the field, offering new insights into the underlying causes as well as new tools to minimize the harm of acid drainage: Part I: Causes of Acid Mine Drainage, Rock Drainage and Sulfate Soils focuses on the biogeochemistry of acid drainage in different environments. Part II: Assessment of Acid Mine Drainage, Rock Drainage and Sulfate Soils covers stream characterization, aquatic and biological sampling, evaluation of aquatic resources, and some unusual aspects of sulfide oxidation. Part III: Prediction and Prevention of Acid Drainage discusses acid-base accounting, kinetic testing, block modeling, petrology, and mineralogy studies. It also explains relevant policy and regulations. Part IV: Remediation of Acid Drainage, Rock Drainage and Sulfate Soils examines both passive and active cleanup methods to remediate acid drainage. Case studies from a variety of geologic settings highlight various approaches to analyzing and solving acid drainage problems. Replete with helpful appendices and an extensive list of web resources, Acid Mine Drainage, Rock Drainage, and Acid Sulfate Soils is recommended for mining engineers and scientists, regulatory officials, environmental scientists, land developers, and students.
