Salt Water Disposal

Minetek provides an efficient and cost-effective open pit dewatering solution, enabling operators to access recoverable resources and efficiently manage the by-product of mining processes.

Mine & pit dewatering systems

Often present in the oil and gas industry and as a specific by-product of the reverse osmosis process, brine water presents a significant and costly challenge to industrial operators. The result is a highly saline by-product that cannot be released back into the environment due to high levels of contaminants and Total dissolved solids (TDS). Minetek’s evaporators can process water with high levels of Total Dissolvable Solids (TDS) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and pH range as low as 1.8 and as high as 14.

Our water evaporation solutions offer versatility and a cost-effective solution to achieving brine water disposal without the need for pre-treatment. Our expertise extends to salt water disposal, providing effective methods to dispose of salt water safely and efficiently.

Cost savings

Significantly reduce operational costs by minimising the need for off-site brine water disposal and water treatment costs.

 

Environmental responsibility

Minimize your environmental impact by eliminating the need for traditional liquid waste disposal methods and reducing the risk of excess water storage.

Mobile & scalable solution

Our systems can adapt to the evolving needs of your oil & gas operations, ensuring they remain effective as you grow.

Regulatory compliance

Minetek helps you navigate and exceed stringent environmental regulations, ensuring your activities remain compliant.

Standalone or hybrid dewatering solution

Minetek’s evaporation technology is a cost-effective standalone or hybrid dewatering solution. With the ability to process varying water qualities, including solids up to 4.0mm in diameter and waste water with a pH level ranging from 1.8 to 14+. Minetek’s evaporation technology is a cost-effective standalone or hybrid dewatering solution. Our units pump large volumes of water at high pressure through specially configured nozzles atomizing the water into tiny droplets. During this process, a percentage of the water will evaporate, and a percentage will fall back into the water source along with any solids, salts, heavy metals or contaminants.
