Abstract

The study of coal wastes in Chautauga County, New York was begun on June 1, 1975. The major effort to date has been made on the fly ash dump west of Dunkirk, N.Y. The following topics are covered: description of the site; invertebrate biology; selection of trace elements for study and methods of analysis; water analyses; analyses of invertebrates; literature search; physical chemistry of coal ash and the leaching process; and study of lake sediments.

Environmental impact of coal ash on tributary streams and nearshore water of Lake Erie. Progress report, June 1, 1975--December 31, 1975. [Cd, Zn, Cu, Cr, Fe, Mn]

Wood, K.

The principal study site is the landfill of the Niagara Mohawk Power Corp., Dunkirk, N.Y. Concentrations of dissolved metals are determined in the waters from the site and aquatic invertebrates from ponds and streams at the site are being identified and analyzed for trace metals. Elevated levels of Fe and Mn occur in the runoff from the site and in the aquatic invertebrates. The metals Cd, Zn, Cu, and Cr are found at low levels (ppB range) in the waters and in variable, generally low concentrations in the biota. Taxonomic study is focused primarily on the Chironomidae (10 general) andmore »« less
Analytical and sampling methodology used for determining the impact of a MHD test facility. [Al, As, Ca, Cd, Fe, K, Mn, Pb, Zn, B, Be, Bi, Co, Cr, Hg, Mg, Mo, Ni, Sb, Se, Sn, V]

Jenke, D.R. - Anal. Lett.; (United States)

The suitability of various analytical and sampling methodologies for the determination of the environmental impact of a test scale MHD (magnetohydrodynamic) power generation facility is evaluated. Media which were sampled included airbourne particulates, soils, vegetation and natural waters. Analytical techniques examined include plasma emission and atomic absorption spectrometry and ion chromatography. Except in the case of the sampling of particulates with moss ball samplers, the analytical and sampling methodologies can be integrated in such a manner so as to maximize precision and thereby facilitate the statistical evaluation of impact effects. 12 references, 1 figure, 7 tables.

Environmental impact of coal ash on tributary streams and nearshore water or Lake Erie. Final report

Wood, K.G.

The environmental impact of coal ash disposal at a landfill site in north-central Chautauqua County, New York was studied from June 1975 through July 1977. Water samples taken from wells, ponds, and streams at 67 sites were analyzed for specific conductance, pH, alkalinity, arsenic, calcium, cadmium, chloride, chromium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, selenium, sodium, sulfate and zinc. Evidence suggests that ponds at the landfill were high in Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn, and SO/sub 4/ compared to control pands. A stream adjacent to the site contained greater Mn (207 ug/1) and SO/sub 4/ (229 ppm) than control streams. Shallow alkalinemore »« less

Contamination of groundwater by heavy metals from the land disposal of fly ash. Technical progress report, June 1, 1975--February 29, 1976. [As, Ca, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Pb, Zn]

Theis, T.L. ; Marley, J.J.

Major emphasis was placed on laboratory evaluations of heavy metal associations with fly ash. Data are presented showing that most fly ashes contain considerable amounts of As, Ca, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Pb, and Zn. Desorption studies suggest that pH and the presence of various heavy metal sinks on the ash particle surface (notably hydrous iron oxides) play significant roles in the release of these metals into solution. Adsorption studies using natural ash leachate/soil systems and vertical soil columns give quantitative estimates (through the use of adsorption isotherms) of the degree of attenuation of the heavy metals.
