About this book

Managing Mining and Minerals Processing Wastes: Concepts, Design and Applications presents fundamental knowledge in waste management in mining and minerals processing and summarizes recent advances. The book offers readers insights into innovative ways to manage waste in the mining and minerals industry. Sections cover a brief introduction to this topic and an explanation of waste generation, and how to manage the six types of waste, including waste rock, mill tailings, coal refuse and coal fly ash, quarry waste, metallurgical slugs and washery rejects. The title then emphasizes the management of hazardous waste, the acid mine drainage and the lifecycle assessment of waste management. Finally, the book considers current and emerging challenges. This publication offers a comprehensive background to waste management in mining and minerals processing and a summary of recent advances and innovative strategies for managing each kind of waste. - Presents the background to waste management in minerals and mining, also summarizing recent advances - Provides an accessible introduction to the current state of, and future prospects for, waste management - Helps readers increase their usable knowledge on waste management in mining and minerals engineering - Offers new insights into how waste can be managed in innovative ways - Covers hazardous waste, acid mine drainage, lifecycle assessment and emerging issues
