Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the characteristics and potential uses of waste materials left as a result of the industrial coal mining operations that began in Illinois in the mid-1800s. These materials are typically comprised of shale, clay, other debris from mining operations, and coal and clay separated from the coal during coal washing operations. The author notes the numerous problems associated with these waste materials, such as slumping, erosion, leachates, and the creation of sinkholes and hazardous mine shaft openings, and offers possible solutions. They also discuss the potential of these materials to be repurposed for commercial uses and conclude that some of these materials have commercial applications, depending on the scale of processing required to develop them and the distance of the site from the point of use. The book emphasizes that the problems associated with these waste materials can be controlled and even minimized through the application of existing technology.
