The proposed remediation techniques are diverse, although the use of biomaterials has recently become popular as an economical sustainable alternative, where adsorbent biomaterials synthesized by pyrolysis of biological waste are used. In this work, bone char (BC; bio hydroxyapatite), synthesized from cattle bones, was tested for the remediation of historic mining tailings in San Felipe de Jesús, Sonora, through a factorial experimental design. The results showed that BC reduces the production of efflorescent salts, in addition to buffering parameters such as pH and EC, demonstrating its potential for treating acid mine drainage. Los beneficios de la industria minera son innegables, sin embargo, los residuos son frecuentemente asociados con problemáticas medioambientales, debido la presencia de elementos potencialmente tóxicos. Las técnicas de remediación propuestas son diversas, aunque recientemente se ha popularizado el uso de biomateriales como una alternativa sustentable económica, en donde se utilizan biomateriales adsorbentes sintetizados mediante pirólisis de desechos biológicos. En este trabajo se probó al bone char (BC; bio hidroxiapatita), sintetizado a partir de huesos de ganado vacuno para la remediación de jales mineros históricos de San Felipe de Jesús, Sonora, mediante un diseño experimental factorial. Los resultados mostraron que el BC disminuye la producción de sales eflorescentes, además de amortiguar parámetros como el pH y CE, demostrando su potencial para el tratamiento de drenaje ácido de mina.
