Mining & mine water
Final polish for permit compliance
Below the limit, with a by-product to sell.
The problem
Many sites already treat their water with lime or RO and still struggle with tightening sulphate and metals limits. Arguments that further treatment is infeasible or disproportionately costly are under pressure.
Benefits
- Sulphate and metals reduced beyond existing treatment
- Saleable by-products, such as sodium sulphate, that offset the cost
- Designed against all three layers of EU water law: watercourse, mine site and processing step
Application
An electromembrane polishing step after the existing treatment train, applicable to sulphate-dominated and acid mine drainage sites.
