Remediation of Abandoned Mines Using Coal Combustion By-products
… occurs when pyrite that is present in abandoned coal mines comes in contact with oxygen and water, forming acidic water rich in dissolved metals. Grout injection into mines is a popular technique that provides a permanent solution to control AMD. The main objective of this study was to …

Characterizing and modeling the hydrologic properties of coal combustion by-products in landfills
Coal combustion byproducts (CCBs) disposed of in unlined landfills can impact the quality of adjacent water resources. In previous studies, CCBs have been found to leach toxic heavy metals such as arsenic, mercury, and lead into groundwater. CCBs include fly ash, bottom ash, and flue gas …

Experimental improvement of flyash as a growth medium for plants through addition of selected solid wastes
Large quantities of coal are consumed in South Africa as a result of the generation of electricity and the manufacture of automotive fuel. A consequence of this was the production of more than 15 Mt of ash and associated coal combustion by-products in 1987 alone. This poses a large scale …

Analysis of coal combustion by-product disposal practices in an arid climate : leachate water quality
Coal combustion by-products (CCBs), produced from a large power plant in New Mexico, have been disposed of in a nearby coal mine since 1973. These CCBs consist of fly ash, bottom ash, and sludge from the flue gas desulfurization process and have elevated concentrations of hazardous constituents. …

Non-traditional sources of critical minerals from the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin
… Basin (WCSB) with a focus on REE from coal combustion by-products (CCBs) and Li from basinal brines. The first phase of this work used machine learning to identify geochemical indicators of REE enrichment in sedimentary strata which can be used to predict where elevated abundances may …
