3 Intelligent Mine Water Management User need Water and waste minimization in mining and exploration Lower investment cost to mining, exploration and mine water management Solution To enhance mine water management Reuse of extracted valuables The mine water treatment inside a mine Optimization of geothermal mine water applications Valorization of mine water Benefits Lower environmental impacts due to optimized mining and exploration processes Users Mining and exploration companies Research institutes Chemical reagents and process equipment manufacturers

4 Solutions and challenges Nitrogenous compounds with further using them as a fertilizer Production of Struvite (MgNH 4 PO 4.6H 2 O) and Niter (KNO 3 ) Electro remeditation of sulphates The reduction of NO 3- to NH 4+ by iron wastes The passivation process decreasing during the sulphates removal by electro remediation The sulphates removal by electrocoagulation Optimizing tracer tests for mine water Tracer quantification method New tracer development Quantification method is currently time and labour consuming, and also is a sensitivity method, especially for fluorescent microspheres Unstable tracer: recovery rate is low due to ph, temperature, sediment adsorption, and other impact factors

5 Approach Nitrogenous compounds removal from mine water Mine water characterization from several mine sites in order to find the highest NO 3- -concentration Aim of the research Transformation of an environmental issue into something useful attempt to produce a fertilizer from NO 3- present in the mine water

6 Nitrogenous compounds removal from mine water Use of iron nanoparticles in comparison with an iron waste for NO 3- reduction to NH 4 + Stream wastes rich in PO 4 3- and Mg 2+ will be used to precipitate Struvite (fertilizer) from mine water Expectations Removing nitrate from mine water in a more sustainable way Besides Struvite production, other fertilizeres will be taken into consideration (e.g. KNO 3 ) according to their economic feasibility to create a fertilizer with economical interest

7 Nitrogenous compounds removal from mine water Param Water Param Water Param Water ph 7.80 PO Al < 0.01 EC (µs/cm) Redox (mv) DO (mg/l) TDS 1057 NO Ba Mg Co Ca Mn K + 65 Mo (mg/l) Fe Tot 0.06 Na + 76 Ni < Fe SO Si 5.60 NH Cl 30 Se < NH F 1.10 Others <0.001 NO 4Fe 10H 4Fe NH 3H O nzvi slurry ph 2 Anoxic conditions 30.5 g/l of nzvi 94.9% of NO 3 - removal 7

8 Approach Sulphate electromediation Mine water sampling in several Finnish mine sites Optimizing gap between electrodes for avoiding passivation process Choosing of catalisators for coagulation process

9 Sulphate removal by electrocoagulation Main aim Avoid passivation of electrocoagulation process to increase its efficiency for metal and sulfate removal Solution Using LED lamp and hydrogen peroxide to produce peroxicoagulation and pseudo-peroxi coagulation process Expectations Passivation will not occur in long period of time compared with electrocoagulation process and energy consumption will be much lesser
