  Title Abandoned mines drainage; impact assessment and mitigation of discharges from coal mines in the UK Type Book Chapter
  Year 2001 Publication Geoenvironmental engineering Engineering Geology Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 31-37  
  Keywords abandoned mines coal mines cost discharge drainage England environmental effects Europe feasibility studies Great Britain mine drainage mines mitigation pollution remediation Scotland United Kingdom Western Europe 22, Environmental geology  
  Abstract The UK has a legacy of pollution caused by discharges from abandoned coal mines, with the potential for further pollution by new discharges as groundwaters continue to rebound to their natural levels. In 1995, the Coal Authority initiated a scoping study of 30 gravity discharges from abandoned coal mines in England and Scotland. Mining information, geological information and water quality data were collated and interpreted in order to allow a preliminary assessment of the source and nature of each of the discharges. An assessment of the potential for remediation was made on the basis of the feasibility and relative costs of alternative remediation measures. Environmental impacts of the discharges and of the proposed remediation schemes were also assessed. The results, together with previous Coal Authority studies of discharges in Wales, were used by the Coal Authority, in collaboration with the former National Rivers Authority and the former Forth and Clyde River Purification Boards, to rank discharge sites in order of priority for remediation.

  Title Mine drainage treatment in Polish lignite mining Type Journal Article
  Year 1992 Publication Mine Water Env. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue 1 Pages 35-44  
  Keywords laboratory scale tests plants bogs biological filters open cut mining mine drainage filtration flocculation radiation particle size suspended solids water treatment water discharge field tests lignite mines poland mining and industrial water water treatment water quality  
  Abstract The paper presents volumes and characteristics of water discharged from some Polish lignite open pit mines and discusses methods for its treatment. Results of research work concerned with increase in mine drainage efficiency by using processes of radiation, flocculation and filtration through a set of bog plants, iknown as grass filter are also discussed
