Additional information
During the 20th Century hundreds of millions of tonnes of COPR waste were generated by the high lime process around the world. There is no established solution to dealing with this highly alkaline legacy waste. This work establishes the mechanisms and rate with which Cr(VI) is removed from COPR leachate by zero valent iron at high pH. It was supported by Dr Phil Studds, Northern Environmental Team Director at Ramboll UK, and has directly affected their remediation strategy at one specific UK site, but, is also generally applicable to all COPR sites worldwide.
