Rapid manganese removal from mine waters using an aerated packed-bed bioreactor (2005)
Journal Article
Johnson, K., & Younger, P. (2005). Rapid manganese removal from mine waters using an aerated packed-bed bioreactor. Journal of Environmental Quality, 34(3), 987-993. https://doi.org/10.2134/jeq2004.0300

In the UK, the Environmental Quality Standard for manganese has recently been lowered to 30 µg/L (annual average), which is less than the UK Drinking Water Inspectorate's Maximum Permitted Concentration Value (50 µg/L). Current passive treatment syst... Read More about Rapid manganese removal from mine waters using an aerated packed-bed bioreactor.

Passive treatment of mn-rich mine water : using fluorescence to observe microbiological activity (2005)
Journal Article
Johnson, K., Baker, A., & Manning, D. (2005). Passive treatment of mn-rich mine water : using fluorescence to observe microbiological activity. Geomicrobiology Journal, 22(3-4), 141-149. https://doi.org/10.1080/01490450590945979

Conventionally, limestones have been used in passive mine water treatment systems. Limestones with the highest proportion of calcite are recommended since they have the greatest long-term alkalinity generating potential. Manganese is present in mine...
