Mining & Remote Infrastructure
Water Management for Mining & Remote Operations
Mining and remote operations often need to manage water across challenging sites, from mine water and storage through to treatment, pumping and evaporation.
Solari Water and Energy brings together water-treatment technologies and supporting infrastructure to address site water management, treatment and water-related infrastructure in remote operating environments.
Water Challenges in Mining & Remote Operations
Water management can involve multiple systems across a mine or remote site. Water quality, storage, treatment, evaporation and reliable infrastructure all need to be considered around the conditions and requirements of the individual operation.
Mine & Process Water
Mine and process water can present changing water-quality conditions that require treatment or conditioning before reuse, discharge or further management.
Water Storage & Evaporation
Dams, ponds and other stored water can require active management, including oxygenation or evaporation approaches configured around the site and water-management objective.
Remote Water Infrastructure
Remote operations depend on reliable pumping, treatment and supporting infrastructure, often across sites where distance, operating conditions and access to power influence system design.
Mine & Process Water
Mine and process water can vary considerably depending on the site, water source and operating activity. Suspended solids, sediment and other water-quality conditions can affect how water can be managed, treated or returned to use within the operation.
Managing Variable Water Quality
Treatment needs to be configured around the actual characteristics of the water and its intended use. Filtration can be incorporated where suspended material and particulate matter need to be removed before downstream treatment, reuse or further management.
Treatment Around the Site
Mining operations can involve multiple water streams with different treatment requirements. Solari Water and Energy can integrate filtration and water-treatment stages around the source water, required flows and the way water needs to be managed across the site.

Z Filter
A treatment option that can be incorporated where appropriate within the wider water-treatment system.
Water Storage & Evaporation
Mining and remote operations can hold significant volumes of water in dams, ponds and other storage systems. Depending on the site and water-management objective, stored water may require oxygenation, circulation or active evaporation as part of the broader management approach.
Managing Stored Water
Nanobubble oxygenation can be applied where increased dissolved oxygen is required within stored water. Treatment can be configured around the characteristics of the water body, site conditions and the intended water-management outcome.
Supporting Evaporation
Where evaporation is part of the site water-management strategy, nanobubble-treated water can be used with water-cannon systems to support the evaporation process. The approach needs to be configured around the individual site, water conditions and operating requirements.

Oxygenation for stored water and site water-management applications.
Water Infrastructure
Remote mining and industrial sites depend on water infrastructure operating reliably across supply, treatment, storage and distribution. Distance, site conditions and access to services can influence how pumping and treatment systems need to be configured.
Supporting Remote Water Systems
Water infrastructure can include pumping, treatment and distribution equipment configured around the available water source, required flows and operating demands of the site. For remote operations, the system also needs to account for practical constraints around location and infrastructure access.
Energy for Water Infrastructure
Where appropriate, solar and battery systems can be integrated to support water-related infrastructure, including pumping and treatment equipment. The energy approach is assessed around the requirements of the individual site and can provide an alternative where connection to conventional power infrastructure is limited or impractical.
