Removal and recovery of vanadium from alkaline steel slag leachates with anion exchange resins (2016)
Journal Article
Gomes, H. I., Jones, A., Rogerson, M., Greenway, G. M., Lisbona, D. F., Burke, I. T., & Mayes, W. M. (2017). Removal and recovery of vanadium from alkaline steel slag leachates with anion exchange resins. Journal of environmental management, 187, 384-392. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2016.10.063

© 2016 The Author(s) Leachable vanadium (V) from steel production residues poses a potential environmental hazard due to its mobility and toxicity under the highly alkaline pH conditions that characterise these leachates. This work aims to test the e... Read More about Removal and recovery of vanadium from alkaline steel slag leachates with anion exchange resins.

Zinc Uptake from Circumneutral Mine Drainage in Freshwater Biofilms: New Insights from In Vitro Experiments (2015)
Journal Article
Jones, A., Rogerson, M., Greenway, G., & Mayes, W. M. (2015). Zinc Uptake from Circumneutral Mine Drainage in Freshwater Biofilms: New Insights from In Vitro Experiments. Mine Water and the Environment, 34(3), 295-307. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10230-015-0325-9

© 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. We present results from in vitro flask and flume experiments using freshwater biofilms sourced and cultivated from a mine-impacted stream in North Yorkshire, UK. Flask experiments showed rapid uptake of Zn f... Read More about Zinc Uptake from Circumneutral Mine Drainage in Freshwater Biofilms: New Insights from In Vitro Experiments.

Mine water geochemistry and metal flux in a major historic Pb-Zn-F orefield, the Yorkshire Pennines, UK (2013)
Journal Article
Jones, A., Rogerson, M., Greenway, G., Potter, H. A., & Mayes, W. M. (2013). Mine water geochemistry and metal flux in a major historic Pb-Zn-F orefield, the Yorkshire Pennines, UK. Environmental science and pollution research, 20(11), 7570-7581. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-013-1513-4

Recent studies have shown up to 6 % of rivers in England and Wales to be impacted by discharges from abandoned metal mines. Despite the large extent of impacts, there are still many areas where mine water impact assessments are limited by data availa...
