Water Treatment System for Mining - Mining
The scale of water usage in the mining industry is staggering. As the world`s second-largest industrial water consumer, efficient water management and decontamination are not optional—they are absolutely critical to operational success and sustainability. Choose OLEOLOGY™`s superior water treatment solutions to manage your sheer volume of water in WA, or anywhere throughout Australia, New Zealand and the world.
Our MyCelx technology is the cutting-edge solution for mining water treatment, designed to deliver exceptional purity. It bonds with oil and hydrocarbons at a molecular level, achieving an unparalleled 99.9999% removal of contaminants from your wastewater. This superior decontamination enables high-volume water reuse and significantly reduces the capital cost associated with expensive potable water plants, ensuring both operational efficiency and environmental compliance.
Wash bays typically produce water containing a range of pollutants – such as oil, grease, fuel, surfactants, degreaser, significant suspended solids, and emulsified and soluble hydrocarbons – all of which are treatable with MyCelx technology.
Our HV and LV wash water recycling systems (WWRS) are superior water decontamination and recycling solutions. They prevent recontamination through the use of MyCelx treatments.
An OLEOLOGY™ WWRS can be customised to suit flow rates between 1,000L/hr and 100,000L/hr while removing contaminants well below industry requirements. Our systems are able to treat water from a variety of sources in the mining industry, including:
- LV Wash
- HV Wash
- Workshop
- Bore Water
- Process Water
- Dust Suppression
- Fuel Bunds
There are strict environmental regulations surrounding industrial water management. By removing contaminants from your wastewater, we ensure you meet and exceed regulatory requirements.
Further reducing contaminants in water discharged to the environment mitigates potential future liability from a contaminated site legislation.
OLEOLOGY™ wash bay water treatment systems can function cyclically – enabling industrial water filtration systems mining and mine water treatment reuse across applications, such as:
- Dust suppression
- Water for cooling systems or boilers
- Reuse in non-drinking applications, such as toilets or hand washing
- Vehicle or facility washing and hosing down
- Artificial recharge of aquifers
- Tailings dams and ponds
- Belt filter presses
- Wet screening
