TOTAL WATER MANAGEMENT SOLUTION FOR THE POWER GENERATION INDUSTRY
The power generation industry often uses steam to generate electricity which requires a significant amount of water. Despite your method of power generation, water management products are required to make this process more efficient and reduce water consumption. As the world shifts away from coal-fired power stations to focus on alternative energy solutions, the requirement to remediate ash pond water storage infrastructure is growing.
The vast majority of power plants have recirculating cooling systems which utilise evaporative cooling to condense steam from the outlet of a turbine. There are power generation facilities that use dry cooling technology, resulting in 95% less water use. Despite your method of power generation, water management products are required to make this process more efficient and reduce water consumption.
As the world shifts away from coal-fired power stations to focus on alternative energy solutions, the requirement to remediate ash pond water storage infrastructure is growing. Led by new guidelines from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), power utility owners are now aiming to remediate coal ash basins with dewatering and stabilisation of wet ash the priority. To achieve specific requirements of the landfill, a solution is needed to quickly dewater & stabilize the ash. At Minetek our water management products can help efficiently dispose of coal ash.
Over three decades we’ve tried and tested out water management products processing any type of water quality including acid water, saline and caustic water, with our evaporation technology. Our engineers have developed the world’s largest and most cost-effective water evaporators with significant CAPEX savings in comparison to traditional water management methods.

MINETEK understand our business, and our requirements, and always display a solid commitment to meeting our goals. We enjoy an open and honest business relationship, and we consider ours to be a lifelong partnership.

The relatively small fans allowed us to utilise our existing bulkhead, where we were severely limited by space, which allowed us to use our existing infrastructure and dramatically reduce downtime in the mine during the change out. The installation was completed safely... and allows us to scale our ventilation flow with their pressure on demand system to suit our production profile.

We found the MINETEK WATER team listened and supported our situation with helpful guidance and advice to layout the evaporator pipework maximising their efficiency. I would highly recommend the units to others needing a cost effective solution to excess water.”

Kipoi have successfully utilized MINETEK WATER evaporators on our process water pond to remove mine water and has contributed to help with our water balance. We are currently in the process of moving these units to where the catchment area is larger giving us better utilization of the evaporators.
