Mining
Water for extraction,
dust suppression and cooling.
Mining operations use large volumes of water, particularly in coal extraction. Spray systems require reliable water for dust suppression, while mining machinery also depends on cooling water.
Controlling suspended solids helps prevent spray-nozzle blockage and supports dependable water supply for both dust control and equipment cooling.
Suspended solids.
Unstable clarification.
Conventional treatment commonly adds coagulants before coagulation and sedimentation. Fluctuating solids loads can make the residual suspended-solids concentration difficult to control.
Inadequate clarification increases the risk of nozzle blockage and adds to cleaning and maintenance work across the water network.
Direct filtration.
A smaller site footprint.
Super Cerafilter provides compact ceramic membrane filtration with stable outlet turbidity below 0.1 NTU. The small installation footprint suits constrained mining sites.
For the application conditions described here, raw water below 100 NTU can feed directly to the equipment for purification. System sizing and cleaning are matched to the actual solids load and the demand from sprays and cooling equipment.
