Metals Recovery from Acid Mine Drainage and Possibilities for their Utilization

Original language description

Extraction of coal, gold, and polymetallic ore, as well as their modifications, has left a lot of dumps of waste material, tailings, and abandoned mines in the world. Sulphide minerals in these deposits under aerobic conditions (air and water) are liableto microbio-chemical biodegradation by litotrophic bacteria and archaea, resulting in acid mine drainage (AMD) production. Processes caused by litotrophic microorganisms, namely Acidithiobacillus sp. and Leptospirillum sp, have occurred in the soil dumpof pyritized hydroquartzite in the area of Banska Stiavnica - Sobov. They bring about AMD production, with dominant components of Fe, Al, and sulphates. This article deals with active modification/treatment (gaining of Fe-sorbents, Fe-pigments) and remediation (decreasing concentration of contaminants - heavy metal, sulphate) of AMD from this area. The products of various purities, phase compositions, and properties, including surface properties, can be synthesized from AMD depending on
