The removal of pollutants and natural organic compounds from acid mine drainage using a combination of bentonite clay and MgSO4

200 mL of synthetic acid mine drainage (AMD) sample was poured into five 500 mL glass beakers and treated in a jar test and a shaker in sets of experiments, respectively. The samples were treated in small-scale laboratory experiments using synthetic AMD sample dosed with bentonite clay and MgSO4 res...
