Abstract
The report summarizes recent research on the treating of acid mine drainage. Two processes are combined. Reverse osmosis is used followed by cycling the resulting brine through a neutralization plant. The clarified water from here is then blended into the reverse osmosis feed. The process extracts 98 plus percent of the water and produces a sludge suitable for disposal through landfill.
