Title Biological removal of arsenic from tailings pond water at Canadian mine Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication Arsenic Metallurgy Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 209-214
Keywords mine water treatment
Abstract Applied Biosciences has developed a biological technology for removal of arsenic, nitrate, selenium, and other metals from mining and industrial waste waters. The ABMet((R)) technology was implemented at a closed gold mine site in Canada for removing arsenic from tailings pond water. The system included six bioreactors that began treating water in the spring of 2004. Design criteria incorporated a maximum flow of 567 L/min (150 gallons per minute) and water temperatures ranging from 10 degrees C to 15 degrees C. Influent arsenic concentrations range from 0.5 mg/L to 1.5 mg/L. The ABMet((R)) technology consistently removes arsenic to below detection limits (0.02 mg/L). Data from the full scale system will be presented, as well as regulatory requirements and site specific challenges.

Title Design challenges for large scale sulfate reducing bioreactors Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication Contaminated Soils, Sediments and Water: Science in the Real World, Vol 9 Abbreviated Journal
Volume 9 Issue Pages 33-44
Keywords mine water treatment
Abstract The first large-scale (1,200 gpm capacity), sulfate-reducing; bioreactor (SRBR) was constructed in 1996 to treat water from an underground lead mine in Missouri. Other large-scale SRBR systems have been built elsewhere since then. This technology holds much promise for economically treating heavy metals and has progressed steadily from the laboratory to industrial applications. Scale-up challenges include: designing for seasonal temperature variations, minimizing short circuits, changes in metal loading rate s, storm water impacts, and resistance to vandalism. However, the biggest challenge may be designing for the progressive biological degradation of the organic substrate and its effects on the hydraulics of the SRBR cells.

Title Relocating the Inde river – Post-mining design of a river meadow landscape. Verlegung des Flusses Inde – Bergbauliche Gestaltung einer Flussauenlandschaft Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication World of Mining Surface & Underground Abbreviated Journal
Volume 57 Issue 5 Pages 346-351
Keywords Fluss=Gewässer Verlegen Braunkohlenbergbau Tagebau Ökologie Umweltschutz Landschaftsgestaltung Wasserbau Flutung Deutschland Flussverlegung Wiedernutzbarmachung
Abstract Vor dem Hintergrund einer planmäßigen Tagebauentwicklung muss der das Gewinnungsfeld in Nord-Süd-Richtung durchquerende Fluss Inde Ende 2005 bergbaulich in Anspruch genommen werden. Als Ersatz wurde auf Grundlage des Planfeststellungsbeschlusses vom 10.09.1998 eine neue Inde auf einer Länge von rd. 12 km erstellt. Rund 10 km der neuen Inde liegt innerhalb des Tagebaufeldes. Hierzu musste eine Flusslandschaft angelegt werden. Im Gegensatz bisher anthropogen geprägten Inde, ist eine naturnahe und weiträumige Flusslandschaft vorgesehen. Die Gestaltung soll, in Verbindung mit den zahlreichen eingebrachten Landschaftselementen wie Flutmulden, Altarmansätzen und Kolke, eine artenreiche und ökologisch hochwertige Auenlandschaft ermöglichen. Die Flutung der neuen Inde erfolgt auf Grundlage eines dreiphasigen Gewässerumschlusskonzeptes. Im Anschluss an die Flutung soll ein Monitoring- Programm zur Dokumentation der hydrodynamischen, morphologischen und landschaftsökologischen Entwicklung der Indeflur durchgeführt werden. Against the background of the scheduled eastward development of the Inden opencast mine, the Inde river which runs there must make way for mining operations at the end of 2005. Prior to this, as a replacement for the riverbed, which is some 4.5 km long, a riverscape has had to be created as a bypass in the west, mainly within the scope of rehabilitation measures. The model built for this purpose based on historical records provides for a close-to-nature and spacious riverscape with hand- and soft-wood meadows, unlike the anthropogenically marked Inde of today, with a meandering mean water bed. This design, in conjunction with the many installed landscape elements, like flood hollows, creeks and potholes, aims at creating a diverse and ecologically high-quality meadow landscape. The main factors impacting the river's route were the opencast mine's geometry and progress, as well as the planned and existing utilization of the land surfaces outside the opencast field. Besides these constraints, there were stipulated vertical points due to hydraulic requirements. The Inde plains, taking account of the planned route, were created on the basis of a design template, which provides for a stable level, a sealing layer and a cultivatable meadow substrate layer. In addition, the meadow substrate layer protects the sealing layer from erosion thanks to its medium- and coarse-grained gravel content. The Inde was constructed in the opencast field within the scope of rehabilitation in spreader operations, meaning that it was possible to dump the material to be installed in line with the design template and given elevations. The flooding of the 'new' Inde was based on a three-phase waterway rerouting concept and provided for increasing discharge quantities. This enabled a bottom covering layer to be formed successively, and ailowed the aquatic fauna to gently adapt to the changed living conditions and further seed material to be flushed in.
