Ferric Oxyhydroxylsulfate Precipitation Improves Water Quality in an Acid Mining Lake: A Hydrogeochemical Investigation

Hydrogeochemistry of a lignite pit lake in Lusatia, Germany, was investigated. Anoxic groundwater from the dump aquifer rich in Fe<sup>II</sup> (average ~5911 µmol/L) and SO<sub>4</sub> (average ~14,479 µmol/L) contents enter the lake as subsurface inflow; oxidation and subse...
