Acid mine drainage (AMD) occurs after mining exposes metal sulfides to oxidizing
conditions. Leaching of reaction products into surface waters pollute over 20,000 km of …

As high-grade ore deposits become depleted, there is an increasing demand to process
marginal low-grade ores with complex metallurgical challenges. Orebodies can be rich in …

Heavy metals (HMs) from smelters pose severe challenges to the environmental soil quality
of surrounding farmlands, and threaten human health through the food chain. This study …

In abandoned open-pit coal mines, surface water and groundwater form acidic waters with
high concentrations of metal ions due to chemical interactions with ores such as pyrite, and …

The prediction of acid production potential (APP) of coal waste piles that underwent self-
combustion was investigated by integrating mineralogical and chemical data to secure a …

Abstract In northern Tunisia, Sidi Driss sulfide ore valorization had produced a large waste
amount. The long tailings exposure period and in situ minerals interactions produced an …

Purpose Banana peel was used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Cu and Pb ions
from aqueous solution in a binary system. Methods The interactive effects of the operating …

Water quality monitoring demands the use of spatial interpolation techniques due to on-
ground challenges. The implementation of various spatial interpolation methods results in …

Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in mine water generated during coal mining is a large and
potential source of atmospheric CO 2, however its geochemical behaviors under the …

Chemosensory perception is crucial for fish reproduction and survival. Direct contact of
olfactory neuroepithelium to the surrounding environment makes it vulnerable to …
