Disposal of Drainage from Coal Mines
In the past the disposal of drainage from coal mines has been a simple and inexpensive proposition. As coal properties have been opened and the workings driven, water is always developed, which is either pumped or flows by gravity from the mines into the nearest waterway. Practically all coal-mine drainage contains sulfuric acid, which soon impregnates the fresh-water streams into which it flows to such an extent that they are unfit for either industrial or domestic use.
