ABSTRACT
Mining wastes pose environmental risks. Additionally, storage & disposal costs of waste are high. Studies on the utilization of mine wastes in soil improvement and agriculture can significantly contribute to reducing the environmental risks and the feasible utilization of these wastes. Considering the latest developments in the literature, the number of published review articles on the use of mine wastes in soil improvement and as fertilizer in agriculture is extremely limited. Taking into consideration this deficiency in the literature, this study reviewed the sustainable contributions of the use of zeolite wastes, sulfur wastes, dunite wastes, serpentinite wastes, nickel mining wastes, boron wastes, and perlite wastes in soil improvement and as fertilizers in agriculture. In this evaluation, it was determined which of the selected mine wastes contributed to the sustainable criteria corresponding to the codes created. In this way, it was aimed to contribute to the sustainable, environmentally friendly, and feasible use of mine wastes and to raise awareness for all stakeholders. The results of this study can guide guidance to R&D organizations and recycling businesses considering financing the use of these mine wastes in soil improvement and agriculture as fertilizer in the future. It is also a guide for other stakeholders considering the use of these mine wastes in soil improvement and agriculture as fertilizer in specific regions, considering contributions to sustainability criteria.

Przegląd zrównoważonego wkładu wykorzystania niektórych odpadów górniczych do ulepszania gleb i jako nawozów w rolnictwie
wykorzystanie w rolnictwie, naturalne nawozy glebowe, nawóz organiczny, gleba kopalniana, zrównoważone rolnictwo
Odpady górnicze stanowią zagrożenie dla środowiska. Ponadto wysokie są koszty ich składowania i utylizacji. Badania nad wykorzystaniem odpadów górniczych do ulepszania gleb i w rolnictwie mogą znacząco przyczynić się do zmniejszenia zagrożeń dla środowiska i opłacalnego wykorzystania tych odpadów. Biorąc pod uwagę najnowsze osiągnięcia w literaturze, liczba opublikowanych artykułów przeglądowych na temat wykorzystania odpadów górniczych do ulepszania gleb i jako nawozów w rolnictwie jest bardzo ograniczona. Biorąc pod uwagę ten niedobór w literaturze, w niniejszym badaniu dokonano przeglądu zrównoważonego wkładu wykorzystania odpadów zeolitowych, odpadów siarkowych, odpadów dunitowych, odpadów serpentynitowych, odpadów górniczych niklu, odpadów borowych i odpadów perlitowych do ulepszania gleb i jako nawozów w rolnictwie. W niniejszej ocenie określono, które z wybranych odpadów górniczych przyczyniły się do spełnienia kryteriów zrównoważonego rozwoju odpowiadających utworzonym kodom. W ten sposób starano się przyczynić do zrównoważonego, przyjaznego środowisku i wykonalnego wykorzystania odpadów kopalnianych oraz wzrostu świadomości wszystkich zainteresowanych stron. Wyniki niniejszego badania mogą stanowić wskazówki dla organizacji badawczo-rozwojowych i przedsiębiorstw recyklingowych rozważających finansowanie wykorzystania tych odpadów kopalnianych w celu poprawy jakości gleby i w rolnictwie jako nawozu w przyszłości. Stanowią one również przewodnik dla innych zainteresowanych stron rozważających wykorzystanie tych odpadów kopalnianych w celu poprawy jakości gleby i w rolnictwie jako nawozu w określonych regionach, uwzględniając wkład w kryteria zrównoważonego rozwoju.
