Experimental data sulfate and metal removal from mining impacted water collected at the Formosa Mine, OR, and sulfur speciation in the obtained solid residues.
Description
The data set contains the elemental composition, pH, and sulfate content of the utilized mining impacted water used as influent in the columns study, the data for pH, Eh, Cd, Fe, Mn, Zn, sulfate and sulfate removal rate in the columns, and the data for an example XPS spectrum of sulfur from one of the collected solid residues from the bioactive column.
