Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) in open-pit coal mines can be effectively prevented by using Fly Ash (FA) and Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) in cover system due to neutralization effect of FA and oxygen consumption by EFB. However, experimental results showed that the decrease in permeability of soils after mixing FA and dissolution of Al from FA may accelerate soil water erosion and inhibition of plant growth in a cover layer. Thus, soil water erosion and inhibition of plant growth should be considered for cover system with FA and EFB in order to prevent AMD in open-pit coal mine.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、石炭の燃焼時に生成するFly Ash(石炭燃焼灰、以下、FA)とパーム油加工時に加工残滓として発生するEFBの産業廃棄物を用いて、石炭の開発とともに発生するAMD(酸性鉱山廃水)の問題を効果的に抑制できる可能性を示した。これにより、東南アジア地域における産業廃棄物の再利用と資源開発に伴い発生する環境問題の抑制を同時に達成できると考えられる。
