摘要

The chemical signature of the AMD samples analysed revealed high toxicity, and may be classified as highly acidic, with a pH range of 2.6 to 3.2. The relatively low concentration of calcium, sodium and potassium alkalis inherent in the open pit AMD may render it to be more aggressive and attacking than AMD from underground decant. The Langelier Saturation Index of the AMD was estimated to be in the range of -7.0 while the aggressiveness index was about 30 times greater than corresponding values expected of non-corrosive normal water quality. According to both indices, the AMD may be classified as being very highly corrosive. It can be expected that the AMD examined has high potential to cause corrosive attack on aquatic and plant life, soils, infrastructure, equipment, and construction materials, especially steel and concrete. Lime treatment of AMD showed an increase in Ca and removal of Mg, Mn and Fe, but the other physico-chemical parameters in the water generally remained unchanged. Interestingly, the lime-treated AMD still falls into a highly corrosive category of aggressive water, although the indices for the treated water were two to three times less than those for raw AMD. These results indicate the inadequacy of lime treatment as an end in itself to improving AMD water quality prior to discharge to the environment. The qualitative analyses conducted are also confirmed by field observations exhibiting steel corrosion and concrete disintegration due to AMD attack, as discussed above.
