Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide for Revegetating Coal Minesoils in the Eastern United States Perhaps the most serious impact of coal mining on the environment in the Eastern United States is the degradation and pollution of the water resource, especially in the mountainous Appalachian Region. Hydrologic patterns in mined areas are changed. Results of hydrologic studies have shown that during surface mining and before reestablishment of vegetation, the peak flows are higher in streams in mined watersheds than in unmined. Erosion on raw ex posed mined land contributes large quantities of sediment to streams and riv ers. The environment for aquatic life is drastically altered, and many of the fauna are killed. Where mined land is acid, streams are further polluted with chemical substances that are toxic to aquatic plants and animals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reclamation of Mined Lands in the Western Coal Region The revegetation process, though dependent on climate, the availability of suitable thick nesses of growing media, and of sources of plant materials, has been extensively researched for western coal surface-mined lands in recent years by the Surface Environment and Mining Program3 and other Federal and State govern ment agencies and universities. In general, the same horticultural principles that are used for successful farming, home gardening, or land scaping, were found to apply in the revegetation process.

Book Synopsis Eastern Coal Field, C by : Kentucky Geological Survey
Download or read book Eastern Coal Field, C written by Kentucky Geological Survey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eastern Coal Field, C: Comprising Eight Reports on the Resources of Some of the Counties Located in the Eastern Coal Field It being necessary to publish a new edition of the Reports of the Geological Survey, it is thought proper to change the arrangement of the reports in the several volumes. This is advisable in order to bring together in one volume the several reports relating to a given subject or locality. In the first edition (second series) the volumes were made up of reports, regardless of subjects treated, and in order to learn all that may be published of a locality, the reader must examine sev eral volumes. For instance, the reports on the iron ores and the iron manufacture of Greenup, Carter, Boyd, and Lawrence counties is in volume 1, and the Report on the Geology of the above named counties is in volume 2. The Chemical Reports and the reports on the Timbers are scattered through four volumes. This arrangement of reports could not have been avoided in the early history of the Survey without a delay in the publication of the volumes. It is thought that the arrangement in this edition will more fully meet the 'wants of the public, and will render the reports more valuable.

This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coal Lands and Coal-Land Laws of the United States Mr. Mondell. You do not mean to say that in making a coal declaratory statement the party is required to state that he knew the character of the land and that it was valuable? Mr. Clark. I so understand it. Mr. Mondell. I think you will find that the coal declaratory statements are in the majority of cases made through an agent, with the specific statement that the blanks published by the Government contain the provision to be filled out that they have no knowledge of the character of the land except by hearsay, but that their agent has knowledge and that he makes the nonmineral affidavit. I don't think that there can be any doubt about that. Mr. Gaines. It seems that Mr. Clark is stating a fact of his own knowledge, derived in his official capacity. Mr. Mondell. I simply wanted to make that suggestion at this point because it is, it seems to me, a very important matter. Mr. Gaines. But let us find out what they have actually done out there. Mr. Mondell. But I think it is an important question, Mr. Chairman, whether a coal declaratory statement requires that the entryman shall - The Chairman. Mr. Clark is merely stating his understanding? Mr. Clark. I am stating the understanding that was brought out in the investigation at which I was present; and with reference to these lands the understood facts as agreed to by the attorneys on both sides, at least not contradicted, excepting perhaps that the attorney for the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad Company announced the view that the statute required nothing except that the applicant be a citizen of the United States and of lawful age, and has an unquestioned right to enter a coal declaratory statement and transfer the rights for a consideration to any other person or company before the patent to the land had been issued; and, as a matter of fact, that is what was done with the most of the coal lands that have been entered. Mr. Gaines. Did you say that some of those entries or declarations have been made by women? Mr. Clark. Yes, sir. Mr. Gaines. How many? Mr. Clark. I would not undertake to say how many, only that we drew out enough information in our investigation to show that many had been done in that way, and some who had entered lands in that way came before us as witnesses. One young lady in Salt Lake City who was, I should judge from appearances, probably 22 or 25 years of age, testified that at the invitation of the geologist of the Utah Fuel Company, or at his suggestion, she went to the office of the attorney of that company and signed a paper. She did not know what it was; and later she went to the office and signed another paper of which she was equally ignorant; but she did know that she got $50 for her services. And the records show that she entered a quarter section of coal lands and transferred it to the Utah Fuel Company. Mr. Gaines. What is the Utah Fuel Company?

Book Synopsis Beneficial Co-Utilization of Agricultural, Municipal and Industrial by-Products by : Sally L. Brown
Download or read book Beneficial Co-Utilization of Agricultural, Municipal and Industrial by-Products written by Sally L. Brown and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-utilization or blending of residuals offers a unique opportunity to develop products with particular characteristics that are able to target specific customer needs. The very notion of deliberately blending by-products suggests that the recycling and beneficial reuse industries are taking a quantitative step forward towards developing products rather than simply reusing residuals. At the same time that this step provides unique opportunities, it also presents unique challenges. The science associated with the beneficial use of one product may not apply when that product is mixed with another residual. Blending of materials may alter the chemistry of the components of the mixture. This may offer additional benefits, as in the case of disease suppression in composts, or present unexpected problems, as the use of lime-stabilized biosolids has done in Maryland. This book consists of the proceedings of the Beltsville Symposium. The organizers of the Symposium attempted to structure a meeting that would outline both the potential benefits of co-utilization as well as concerns. The editors have divided the proceedings into sections that describe the practical basis for co-utilization of residuals as well as the potential benefits. Specific considerations are described. Finally, case studies include descriptions of successful operations and data that detail results of research involving co-utilization materials. Blending of materials for specific objectives needs to be the focus of any successful co-utilization effort. The scientific implications of the mix need to be determined before a product can be used properly.
Book Synopsis Bioremediation and Biotechnology by : Khalid Rehman Hakeem
Download or read book Bioremediation and Biotechnology written by Khalid Rehman Hakeem and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-26 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toxic substances threatens aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and ultimately human health. The book is a thoughtful effort in bringing forth the role of biotechnology for bioremediation and restoration of the ecosystems degraded by toxic and heavy metal pollution. The introductory chapters of the book deal with the understanding of the issues concerned with the pollution caused by toxic elements and heavy metals and their impacts on the different ecosystems followed by the techniques involved in monitoring of the pollution. These techniques include use of bio-indicators as well as modern techniques for the assessment and monitoring of toxicants in the environment. Detailed chapters discussing the role of microbial biota, aquatic plants, terrestrial plants to enhance the accumulation efficiency of these toxic and heavy metals are followed by remediation techniques involving myco-remediation, bio-pesticides, bio-fertilizers, phyto-remediation and rhizo-filtration. A sizable portion of the book has been dedicated to the advanced bio-remediation techniques which are finding their way from the laboratory to the field for revival of the degraded ecosystems. These involve bio-films, micro-algae, genetically modified plants and filter feeders. Furthermore, the book is a detailed comprehensive account for the treatment technologies from unsustainable to sustainable. We believe academicians, researchers and students will find this book informative as a complete reference for biotechnological intervention for sustainable treatment of pollution.
