  Title A quantitative approach to optimize chemical treatment of acid drainage using geochemical reaction path modeling methods: Climax Mine, Colorado Type Journal Article
  Year 2000 Publication ICARD 2000, Vols I and II, Proceedings Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1053-1058  
  Keywords mine water treatment  
  Abstract The Climax Mine, near Leadville, Colorado treats acid drainage in a lime neutralization chemical treatment system. Chemical treatment has been successful in reducing the concentration of metals to below surface water discharge effluent limits, but lime usage has not been optimized. A geochemical modeling approach has been developed to increase the efficiency of lime neutralization. The modeling approach incorporates two steps: (1)calibration, and (2) calculation of amount of lime needed to increase pH and remove metals. Results of our work quantify the lime treatment process and improve our ability to predict overall water quality.
