Removal of heavy metals from real mine tailings coupling electrokinetic soil flushing and Bioleaching

Acosta-Hernández I., Muñoz Morales M., Rodríguez Romero L., Villaseñor Camacho J., (Corresponding) Fernandez-Morales F.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

In the present work, polluted mine tailings from the abandoned Pb/Zn mine of San Quintín (Ciudad Real, Spain) have been treated by an innovative in-situ bioleaching process. Bioleaching uses the capacity of certain microorganisms of oxidizing iron and/or reduce sulphur which enhance the process of...Read more

Sustainable and Cost-effective Approach for Treatment of Plating Industrial Wastewater Effluents

(Corresponding) Boguniewicz-Zablocka J., Naddeo V., (Corresponding) Corpuz M.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

The wastewater resulting from the plating industry contains high contents of toxic metals, such as chromium, which is a serious threat to the environment due to its cumulative effects and non-degradability. Several methods have been actively investigated to remove heavy metal ions from aqueous...Read more
