Tailing as asset
Section view and calculations
The section on the top depicts the entire process, while the two below are the expanded scale of one part of the whole. The buffer of dense vegetation around the mining area supports the ongoing activities by decreasing the spread of air pollutants, followed by planting into abandoned tailing areas to contain and diminish the soil toxicity. Generated biomass will then feed the cellulosic biorefinery converting it into energy.
