Reduce risks associated with tailings storage facilities
With an estimated 3,500 tailings storage facilities around the world, the need for effective tailings water management is clear and present. On average, 3 of these tailings dams fail each year with incidents over the last 15 years on the rise. Although the current failure rate represents a small percentage of the overall number of dams, these occurrences can lead to significant environmental impacts.
Implementing a water evaporation system designed to lower tailings dam water levels, and ensure compliance with global standards can mitigate the safety, environmental, and commercial risks of tailings dams. Minetek’s water management solutions are automated and designed for all TSF applications, including upstream, downstream, and midstream sites.
Risparmio sui costi
Riduzione significativa dei costi operativi grazie alla minimizzazione della necessità di smaltimento fuori sede e dei costi di trattamento delle acque.
Responsabilità ambientale
Riducete al minimo l'impatto ambientale eliminando i tradizionali metodi di smaltimento dei rifiuti liquidi e riducendo il rischio di accumulo di acqua in eccesso.
Soluzione mobile e scalabile
I nostri sistemi sono in grado di adattarsi all'evoluzione delle esigenze delle vostre attività nel settore petrolifero e del gas, garantendo la loro efficacia anche in caso di crescita.
Conformità normativa
Minetek vi aiuta a navigare e a superare le severe normative ambientali, garantendo che le vostre attività rimangano conformi.
Reduce tailings water levels
Minetek’s evaporation technology is a cost-effective standalone solution to reducing TSF water levels. Our units can process varying water qualities, including solids up to 4.0mm in diameter and caustic with a pH level ranging from 1.8 to 14+. Two 600/300 Minetek Evaporators can quickly evaporate an Olympic-sized pool in just 24 hours (depending on the climate), significantly reducing tailings storage facility water levels and associated risks.
Tailings resource recovery
Minetek’s water solutions offer more than just efficient water management for tailings dams; they provide opportunities for resource recovery. Our enhanced evaporation technology enables the extraction of valuable resources from tailings water, turning waste into opportunity. Through innovative processes, we help mining operations maximise their returns while minimising environmental impact, ensuring sustainable management of tailings dams for a brighter future.
