Long description: Mine water is a significant source of freshwater pollution in the UK, second only to sewage in many northern and western districts, such as in the Midland Valley of Scotland (Younger, 2001), and contains elevated levels of manganese. Water quality legislation is currently being reviewed by UK regulators and it is likely that the Environmental Quality Standard (EQS) for manganese will be lowered. This has led to an increased interest in manganese removal treatment systems. This Research Bulletin describes a novel technique for manganese removal and represents a major advance in passive manganese treatment, since it significantly reduces the amount of land required over previous treatment methods.
