THE MECHANISM OF ACCUMULATION OF FERRUM COMPOUNDS IN HIGHLY MINERALIZED MINE AND QUARRY WATERS AND THEIR PURIFICATION BY ELECTROLYSIS

The mechanism of accumulation of dissolved iron compounds in groundwater and brines under the influence of sulfate reduction and the resulting decrease in the redox potential is considered. The mechanism under consideration has been experimentally confirmed. A method of extraction of sulfid...
