Moscow, Russia Treatment of mining, industrial, household and other sewage is an actual problem for many mining and processing enterprises. Coal-mining industry is not an exception. Usually, at coal enterprises, treatment of mine sewage before it is dumped consists in settling and subsequent filtering. Many pollutants are not removed from the sewage by this method. Hence, dumped water frequently does not satisfy sanitary requirements regarding the permissible content of oil products, dissolved substances and other parameters. For additional cleaning of sewage it is possible to use sorption methods. By these methods water is cleaned of oil products, heavy metals, a number of organic substances and other polluting substances, depending on the used sorbent properties. Both natural and artificial materials can be used as sorbents. Constraint for wide use of sorption methods of sewage treatment in the coal industry is high cost of the majority of sorbents. A number of technologies for obtaining inexpensive and good quality sorbents from coal minerals have been developed. These sorbents can be manufactured directly in coal mines which has additional advantage of reducing transport costs. The processes sorbents may be recycled or burnt. Apart from that production and sale of sorbents can serve the coal-mining enterprises as an additional source of income. One of the most widespread sorbents is activated coal. Quality activated coals are carbon sorbents, having an internal specific surface of more than 500㎡/g, and characterized by iodine adsorption (iodine value) of more than500mg/g. mineral coal, peat and wood can serve as raw materials for activated coal production.
