In January 2016, this sludge discharge was replaced by a clarified liquid effluent obtained by filtering the red sludge, with the solid part of the waste being stored on land. In 2019, a new process for neutralising the liquid effluent has improved compliance with environmental standards. Recent studies of the chemical composition of the clarified effluent and of the mineralogical composition of concretions and sediments taken from the discharge area are shedding light on the dispersion of contaminants in the environment.<\/p><p>The case of the Gardanne alumina plant illustrates the general problem of managing waste from the mining industry, amplified here by a highly urbanised geographical context and a very long history of industrial activity.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>            <\/div>                            <\/div>      <\/div>    <\/div>  <\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Un s\u00e9minaire aura lieu le 14 d\u00e9cembre 2021 \u00e0 11h \u00e0 l&#8217;Observatoire Midi Pyr\u00e9n\u00e9es de Toulouse, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 par St\u00e9phanie Jacquet (MIO-CEM) et Christophe Monnin (GET &#8211; Toulouse).\u00a0Depuis les ann\u00e9es 60, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4489,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6783","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-actualites"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6783","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6783"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6783\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4489"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6783"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6783"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mio.osupytheas.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6783"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
