Toxicity Effects

Virtually all water treatment plants have the ability to discharge chlorinated water back to the source stream. Such water may originate from an emergency bypass, filter backwash water or other diversions. The discharge of chlorinated water to receiving water bodies has caused concern because of its toxicity effects to aquatic biota and potential health hazards. This paper demonstrates the use of a transverse mixing model that incorporates both mixing and pollutant decay in assessing the environmental impact of these discharges. The results of such an analysis can be used to base control measures on, such that environmental impact is minimized and guidelines met. Presented is an impact assessment of chlorinated wastewater discharges from two water treatment plants in Edmonton, Alberta. Key words: environmental impacts, mixing, stream pollution, chlorine decay, water treatment.

Critical Raw Materials

Major benefits and constraints related to mineral extraction within the EU have been identified on the examples of selected critical raw materials’ deposits. Analyzed case studies include the following ore deposits: Myszków Mo-W-Cu (Poland), Juomasuo Au-Co (Finland), S. Pedro das Águias W-Sn (Portugal), Penouta Nb-Ta-Sn (Spain), Norra Kärr REEs (Sweden) and Trælen graphite (Norway). They represent different stages of development, from the early/grassroot exploration stage, through advanced exploration and active mining, up to reopening of abandoned mines, and refer to different problems and constraints related to the possibility of exploitation commencement. The multi-criteria analysis of the cases has included geological and economic factors as well as environmental, land use, social acceptance and infrastructure factors. These factors, in terms of cost and benefit analysis, have been considered at three levels: local, country and EU levels. The analyzed cases indicated the major obstacles that occur in different stages of deposit development and need to be overcome in order to enable a new deposit exploitation commencement. These are environmental (Juomasuo and Myszków), spatial (Juomasuo) as well as social constraints (Norra Kärr, Juomasuo). In the analyzed cases, the most important constraints related to future deposit extraction occur primarily at a local level, while some important benefits are identified mainly at the country and the EU levels. These major benefits are related to securing long-term supplies for the national industries and strategically important EU industry sectors.
