The objectives of the present work give the results view of some physicochemical, chemical and biological-chemical methods for the heavy metals removal from Acid Mine Drainage (AMD). The background of the studied physicochemical methods was the adsorption by turf, chemical methods the heavy metals precipitation by the neutralization with NaOH. The principles of the biological-chemical methods were the bioprecipitation by the applications of sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB), the sorption by the bacterially produced iron sulphides and sorption by brown coal bio-modified by micromycetes.
