Breve

This coal mining operation in Queensland faced significant challenges due to accumulating water in its open pits. To mitigate the impact of excess water on production and maintain safe mining conditions, the site required an effective dewatering solution that could rapidly reduce water levels and prevent operational disruptions.

Desafío

Unmanaged water levels in mining pits pose multiple risks, including potential delays in mining activities, reduced production efficiency, safety hazards, and possible non-compliance with environmental regulations. These issues can lead to financial losses, fines, or even site shutdowns. Implementing a reliable pit dewatering system was essential for our client to ensure continuous operations and regulatory compliance.

Solución

Minetek Water provided a comprehensive solution by deploying a 4 xWater Evaporator System Package designed to handle the site’s specific dewatering needs. With a combined evaporation capacity of 540 cubic meters per hour (2,400 gallons per minute), the system significantly reduced water accumulation in the pits, ensuring safe and efficient mining operations. This high-capacity evaporation solution allowed the site to manage water effectively, minimise risks, and maintain compliance with environmental standards, ensuring smooth and sustainable operations.
