A passive treatment system (PTS), including two parallel vertical flow bioreactors (VFBR), was constructed in 2008 for the treatment of unabated net-alkaline ferruginous mine drainage in the Tar Creek Superfund Site in northeastern Oklahoma. Water quality data collected since the PTS began operation indicate significant removal of trace metals in the VFBR. Results of a sequential extraction procedure (SEP) performed on substrate samples showed that the majority of Cd, Co, Fe, Ni, Pb, and Zn were retained in the refractory organic/sulfide fraction.

The viability of removing less commonly addressed metals (e.g., Cd, Cu, Ni, and Pb) in a passive cotreatment concept was tested using a microcosm-scale, three-stage batch reactor system in which acid mine drainage from an abandoned adit on Cerro Rico de Potosí and raw municipal wastewater from Potosí, Bolivia, were introduced at a 5:1 ratio.
