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.
