Abstract
Hydraulic residence time is an important parameter for the design of mine water treatment systems,
in particular for wetland system and settlement lagoon. Despite much investigations have been done on system
hydraulic residence time, little is still known about how the residence time may relate to treatment system
performance. Such an understanding will be useful for improvement of existing treatment system performance
and in the design of future systems. Thus, this review attempts to explore this issue on how the assessment
of system hydraulic behaviour (of which the residence time), coupled with the assessment of geochemical
factors may be incorporated in future design of mine water treatment systems. Review of current design practice
for mine water treatment systems in UK applications of passive treatment is also presented. Recommendation
for design guidance is discussed to provide some insights into new approach for improved design of such
systems.
