On-site Water Treatment for Mining

On‑site water treatment for mining is a specialized solution designed to handle large volumes, high contaminant loads and variable water quality. Systems are tailored to mining processes and engineered for reliable operation in cold and remote environments as well as strict environmental requirements, while enabling circular resource recovery.

Who this solution is for

On-site mining water treatment is designed for:

  • Mining operations with sulfate-, metal-, nitrogen- or uranium-rich water
  • Sites with strict discharge requirements requiring high-efficiency, long-term treatment solutions
  • Sites operating in Northern or cold-climate conditions

What this means for your business

High treatment efficiency

Effective removal of sulfates, heavy metals, nitrogen and uranium to meet permit limits.

Circular processes and resource recovery

Recover valuable products such as sulfur‑based compounds and nutrients instead of generating waste.

Proven cold-climate performance

Reliable operation and treatment at water temperatures down to approximately 2°C.

Full-service delivery model

Testing, piloting, operation and maintenance under a predictable operating cost structure.
