CONTINUOUS ELECTRODIALITIC PROCESS IN THE REDUCTION OF THE CONTENT OF METAL IONS IN THE ACID MINE DRAINAGE

Abstract

The investigation in the preliminary phase to determine the osmotic capacity of the common ceramic recipients, and for the effect of the ions separation capacity analysis by the electrodialitic effect itself there is employee to conductometric readings with the purpose to determine the transportation of ions to the other phase liquid separated by the porous middle.   The results indicate a possibility to determine the feasibilities of analytic quantification of the mobilization ionic, that goes to to be used in the final work for the investigated process.  The acid mine drainage is produced as a result of sulfurs leaching, attributed especially to the interaction of the pyrites, the water and the oxygen, which to produce ferric ions and hydrogen, they dissolve to the other sulfur species of metals bases that can exist in the bodies mineralized.  The final objective of this work is that of proposing an electrochemical technique that permit to mitigate the contamination of the water of the tunnel Victory with high contents of metallic ions.
