Recent developments consist of the integration/hybridization of technologies to achieve effective removal of pollutants from acid mine drainage (AMD) effluents in a stepwise manner such as to ensure that the cost of the process is minimized, and the resulting water is fit for the purpose.
This book presents eight specialized chapters that provide a state-of-the-art review of the different hybridized technologies that have been developed over the years for the treatment of mine effluent including AMD. The successful implementation and challenges of these technologies are highlighted to give the reader a perspective toward the management of such waste in the mining industry.
