The present review briefly discusses the cause and occurrence of acid mine drainage (AMD) and the microbial communities identified in these systems. In addition, a brief discussion is provided on the bioremediation strategies and the role of sulfidogenic biosystems in the treatment of AMD. Acid mine drainage: causes and occurrence
Abandoned mine drainage is water that is polluted from contact with mining activity, and normally associated with coal mining. It is a common form of water pollution in areas where mining took place in the past. There are several issues with abandoned mines that impact water quality: Stream impacted by acid mine drainage from a Mid-Atlantic ...
This paper reviews the Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) remediation potential and operational costs of twelve existing AMD remediation methods against Class 0 and Class I AMD geochemical characteristics as defined in the Modified Hill Framework. Of the twelve remediation options reviewed in this study, eleven required additional process steps …

Acid mine drainage control: Acid mine drainage control technologies can be divided into two major categories: (a) source control techniques and (b) remediation techniques, which are further divided into active treatment and passive treatment [ 37, 38 ]. Several techniques are available to control acid mine drainage formation at the source.

Remediation of Acidic Mine Water Waters draining from abandoned metal mines and mine wastes are often acidic (pH < 4) and contain elevated concentrations of dissolved metals and metalloids and …
DOI: 10.1016/j.copbio.2016.01.013 Abstract Acid mine drainage (AMD) is generated from the oxidative dissolution of metal sulfides when water and oxygen are available largely due to human mining activities. This process can be accelerated by indigenous microorganisms.
Acid mine drainage (AMD), a waste product of mining activities containing sulfates, iron and heavy metals, causes severe environmental degradation and pose risks to human health and sustainable development. Areas impacted by AMD are lacking remediation techniques that holistically address the ecolog …
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a typical type of pollution originating from complex oxidation interactions that occur under ambient conditions in abandoned and active mines. AMD has high acidity and contains a high concentration of heavy metals and metalloids, posing a serious threat to ecological systems and human health. Over the …
This review describes the current abiotic and bioremediative strategies that are currently used to mitigate AMD and compares the strengths and weaknesses of …

The Abandoned Mine Site Characterization and Cleanup Handbook (Handbook) is the result of the collective efforts and contributions of a number of individuals. During the earliest days of Handbook development, Mike Bishop of EPA Region 8 lead the effort to develop a Superfund Mine Waste Reference Document for EPA project managers working on mine
Overall, passive systems can reduce acidic drains by >50% but their performance is, however, sitespecific, and largely influenced by biogeochemical, and physical processes (Kaur et al., 2018)....

Though preventing Acid Mine Drainage is preferable to remediation after the fact is preferable, sometimes it is not possible. This article reviews the current abiotic and …
Abstract Acid mine drainage has been reported to cause various environmental and human health problems. Acid mine drainage is formed due to the oxidation of sulfide minerals to water...
This review describes the current abiotic and bioremediative strategies that are currently used to mitigate AMD and compares the strengths and weaknesses of each. New and …
There are several methods for the removal of heavy metals from acid mine drainage such as chemical precipitation, ion exchange, filtration, oxidation, reverse osmosis, solvent extraction, and adsorption (Gaikwad and Gupta 2008; Hallam et al. 2021 ).
This paper elaborately reviewed the structure, properties, water treatment applications of steel slags, and the mechanism for removing heavy metal ions from acid mine drainage, discussed the problems existing in industrial wastewater treatment by steel slag, and proposed the solutions for future research, aiming to provide theoretical references …

Overall, this review has shown that the resource recovery and reuse is a non-debatable holistic approach to environmental sustainability and acid mine drainage pollution reduction. Finally, the future perspective and areas that deserve in-depth exploration are underscored. Introduction
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is generated from the oxidative dissolution of metal sulfides when water and oxygen are available largely due to human mining activities. This process can be accelerated by indigenous microorganisms. In the last several decades, culture-dependent researches have uncovered and validated the roles of AMD microorganisms …
Acid mine drainage (AMD) causes environmental pollution that affects many countries having historic or current mining industries. Preventing the formation or the migration of AMD from its source is generally considered to be the preferable option, although this is not feasible in many locations, and in such cases, it is necessary to collect, treat, and …
