Abstract |
Partial freezing of acid mine water was used to the extent of 50% conversion to ice. Various metal and acid components in the product water were consistently reduced 85 to 90%. Acid mine water that had been treated with lime was used in similar freezing experiments and observed to have a reduction of metal ions. The pH remained substantially unchanged and the hardness of the water was reduced by nearly 100%. Considerable variations resulted even with efforts toward good control and reproducibility of operation. A firm conclusion as to reduction of sulfate and reduction of certain individual metals was prevented because of difficulties with analytical results. (Author) |
