Mine Water Recovery
Closing the water loop at mine sites — recover, treat and reuse process water instead of drawing fresh supply.
iCEM’s role
iCEM identifies treatment pathways, evaluates biotech and recovery options, and supports pilots that prove water quality gains under Indian mining conditions.
Workstreams
- Wastewater recovery systems for plant and pit operations
- Biotech remediation to enhance wastewater quality
- Fit-for-purpose treatment trains matched to effluent chemistry
What success looks like
- Lower freshwater draw per tonne of production
- Measurable improvement in discharge and reuse quality
- A repeatable playbook for other GMDC and industry sites
