3 Denitrification A microbially facilitated process of nitrate reduction (performed by a large group of heterotrophic facultative anaerobic bacteria) that may ultimately produce molecular nitrogen (N 2 ). Microbes consume carbon and scavenge nitrate NO 3 2 NO 2 NO N 2 O N 2 Greenhouse gas

6 Phosphorus sorption reactions P reacts with Ca, Fe, Al, and OM PO 4 + Ca CaHPO 4 precipitation Surface reactions: exchange, ligand with iron, aluminum, organic matter
7 P sorbing industrial byproducts FGD gypsum synthetic gypsum (calcium) Acid mine drainage treatment residuals (Fe & Al oxides) Fly ash Bauxite mining and production waste (red mud) Drinking water treatment residuals (alum) Steel slag waste
8 Flue Gas Desulfurization Gypsum Low contaminants Widely available Silt size Handles easily High solubility releases Ca Precipitation reaction is relatively slow
9 Coal Combustion Fly Ash Contains heavy metals Widely available Sand to gravel size Handles easily Insoluble Fe and Al Sorption reaction is relatively rapid
10 Drinking Water Treatment Residuals Low contaminants Widely available Ground to gravel size Raw material must be dried and ground Aluminum sulfate (alum) Rapid sorption reaction
11 Acid Mine Treatment Residuals Contains heavy metals Available in PA Silt to gravel size Handles easily Fe and Al oxides Rapid sorption reaction
12 Bauxite (Aluminum ore) Mining Waste Contains heavy metals Jamaica mines Silt to gravel size Handles easily Carbonate, Fe oxides, clays Rapid sorption reaction
13 Steel Slag Waste Contains heavy metals Widely available Gravel size Handles easily Fe and Al oxides and Ca Rapid sorption reaction and Ca precipitation
