Abstract

Acid mine drainage is acidic water that arises as a result of mining activities. Acidic water has a high acidity, which is often characterized by a low pH and contains high levels of heavy metals Fe and Mn. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of activated carbon on the adsorption process and the effect of mass of activated carbon on eggshells. The method used in this research is the adsorption method using activated carbon of eggshell which is physically and chemically activated. This study used a mass variation of 5, 10, 15 and 20 grams with a contact time of 30 minutes and an adsorbent size of 200 mesh. The parameters studied were heavy metals iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn). The initial concentration of Fe acid mine waste was 29.179 mg/L, and Mn was 7.9692 mg/L. The results showed that the mass of activated carbon had an effect on decreasing the levels of Fe and Mn metals. On physical activation the average decrease in Fe metal was 99.50% and Mn metal was 53.21%, while on chemical activation the average decrease in Fe metal was 97.72% and Mn metal was 97.97%.Keywords: Acid mine water, Fe, Mn, Activated carbon, egg shell

Abstract

Mining is a conventional activity that alters the natural landscape and causes hydrological parameter changes and environmental disruptions, such as hampered vegetation growth due to water table subsidence, damaged productive land that affects the river flow, water pollution, deforestation, and erosion. Land clearing for coal mining activity potentially damages the soil layer structure, due to the loss of ground cover vegetation, so hydrological parameter changes, including an 11.79% (50.55 mm) decreased base flow, 40.35% (273.73 mm) increased direct runoff, 21.92% (250.30 mm) increased surface runoff, an 15.73% (76.21 mm) decreased infiltration, 11.03 % (122.52 mm) increased potential evapotranspiration, causing fluctuating river debit. Every 10 Ha of land clearing for mining activities related to 51.46% (291.36 mm) increased runoff. Meanwhile, the postmining activities, including reclamation and vegetation, could only decrease the baseflow by 6.95% (5.95 mm) while increasing the direct runoff, surface runoff, infiltration, and potential evapotranspiration by 9.36% (89.11 mm), 11.19% (148.20 mm), 3.81% (15.56 mm), and 1.73% (21.34 mm), respectively. Furthermore, every 10 Ha of reclamation area is related to an 47.22% (264.62 mm) decrease in runoff.
