Abstract
This study was performed to identify the influencing factors and operating conditions on the treatment of acid mine drainage(AMD) from the Il-kwang mine by porous Zeolite-Slag(ZS) ceramics packed in a column reactor. The hydraulic retention time(HRT) of the column reactor was a pivotal operating condition. Additionally, the mixing ratio of zeolite to slag (Z:S) significantly affected the column’s alkali supply capacity and heavy metal removal efficiency. An HRT of 1.0 day was more effective than 0.5 day HRT in terms of alkali supply capacity and heavy metal removal efficiency. The heavy metal removal efficiency of the 1:3 (Z:S) porous ZS ceramics was higher than that of the 1:1 (Z:S). The average heavy metal removal efficiencies of the 1:3 (Z:S) in a continuous column reactor (1.0 day HRT, 31 operating days) were 92.4%, 86.3%, 96.5%, 99.2%, 96.1%, 89.3%, 98.9% and 93.7%, for Al, As, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, and Zn, respectively. These results suggest that a porous 1:3 (Z:S) ceramic column reactor at an HRT of 1.0 day might be an effective long-term treatment strategy for AMD from the Il-kwang mine.
