We were contracted to upgrade an existing recycled water plant to supply potable water at an remote Glencore Mining Site. This involved stabilising RO permeate water using a large calcite filter. The water was then disinfected using a validated UV sterilisation unit followed by flow paced chlorine dosing.
Housed within a 20ft container, the plant offers a treatment capacity of 100,000 L/day with an instantaneous treatment capacity of 4 L/s.
The system was designed and constructed at our state-of-the art Geelong facility to stringent mining standards, and fully pre-tested, prior to delivery.
Glencore, one of the world’s largest diversified natural resource companies with 25 mining operations in Australia. Like many mining operations in remote areas, there is a need to manage critical water supply to ensure staff are properly catered for.
