A Comparative Analysis of the Performance and the Microbial Ecology of Biological Sulphate Reducing Reactor Systems

Acid rock drainage (ARD) is defined as acidic waste-water contaminated with sulphate and heavy metals which is generated through the oxidation of sulphidic ores in the presence of water and oxygen. Mining activities accelerate this process by bringing these ores to the surface where they are further...
