AKS was contracted to replace ageing drinking water treatment infrastructure at one of BHP / Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) Queensland mines.
Two 20ft containerised packages were supplied, each producing 0.5 L/s. Raw water comes from nearby dams collecting surface water. The treatment process comprised of AFM media pre-filtration followed by Ultrafiltration. The permeate was also treated with UV disinfection and Chlorine dosing.
The packages were built to strict mining standards, with high quality Siemens and Endress & Hausen instrumentation was used throughout. The plant featured FRP cable trays, with a Form 1 rated MCC and each motor accompanied with a Local Control Station.
Installed with advanced water quality instrumentation the Elementz Potable system is also enabled with remote monitoring, allowing offsite control via a smart device, providing around the clock access and control.
