Many solutions are only viable for the short-term and then fail due to a lack of technical understanding.
At Miwatek, we know that selecting and implementing the appropriate solution is only part of the mine water problem. It also requires operation and maintenance to ensure the successful treatment of mine water.
We have a proven track record in operating and maintaining mine water treatment plants. Our strong technical team allows us to deploy relatively inexperienced operations teams. The technical team supplies daily performance and operational input to the operations team while also optimising and troubleshooting the plant.
The technical team can also assist the client operators to sustainably operate the plants. We are here to supply the appropriate technical solution while ensuring operation and maintenance for ongoing on-site success.

Our specialized technical team can assist clients to optimize and/or troubleshoot existing water treatment plants. The engineers will perform a site visit to collect the relevant data. The first step is to model the process to determine what is theoretically possible. The team will then evaluate each unit operation to identify performance deficits and propose interventions to solve the problem or optimize the plant.
