For mining and open-pit mining, Hach Pacific’s water quality monitoring solutions for metals and mining can help identify site specific needs for mine discharge, adapt to constantly changing regulations and situations, and stay efficient while the environmental impact of mining is minimised.
Since Hach began in 1947, its been the go-to experts for water quality monitoring and analysis.
From mining source water analysis to mine reuse water testing and mine discharge water compliance, Hach can provide the measurement tools and test kits to ensure accurate and timely readings.
Hach brings specific, time-tested solutions to monitor, analyse, and ultimately control critical contaminants and water hardness throughout the life cycle of water in mining operations — from de-watering to discharge.
Disinfection monitoring for health and safety
Disinfection monitoring is a key aspect of environmental management in the mining industry.
It helps to protect the environment, ensure the health and safety of workers and local communities, comply with regulations, and maintain good relations with the public. With the RMC Disinfection Panel, Hach offers at time-saving total solution for online chlorine measurement with remote access to calibrate and adjust – without the hassle of being on site.
This is ideal for remote mining sites, saves time and resources, and is extremely reliable thanks to continuously validated measurements.
De-watering in mining
The process of open-cast or quarry de-watering requires diagnostic tools you can rely on to test for metals and chemicals in water as well as pH, TSS, turbidity levels and more before being reintroduced to the environment.
Effective water treatment for reuse in mining
Maximise yield from hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical processes by monitoring the presence of heavy metals and chemical aids such as cyanide in reuse water in dust control, waste dumps, slurry pipelines, etc.
Water treatment for discharge
Whether a mine site is de-watering or treating water used for slurry sampling or machine washing for discharge, close and accurate monitoring of mining wastewater is paramount to ensuring compliance.
Hach offers monitoring tools that provide data that can be relied on, even under changing circumstances like storms, accidents, and runoff.
