ABSTRACT:
A method and system are provided for using coal mine water effluent and for raising cold water fish. The method involves aerating coal mine water effluent having a water temperature of from 12 degrees Celsius to 15 degrees Celsius, and directing the water to a container having water and fish therein. The fish are preferably selected from rainbow trout, sturgeon, arctic char and Atlantic salmon. The system involves a coal mine having water effluent at a temperature of from 12 degrees Celsius to 15 degrees Celsius, an aeration device for aerating the water effluent to produce aerated water, means for carrying the water effluent from the mine to the aeration device, a container containing fish and water, and means for carrying the aerated water from the device to the container. The method and the system solve the problem of what to do with water effluent from the coal mines, and provides for a source of optimum temperature water without the undesired expenses of high energy consumption in adjusting water temperature and pumping water.
