Cleaner water. Smarter mining.

Across the mining value chain, water is both a critical asset and a major operational challenge. Whether you're managing washdown bays, underground inflows, or remote worker camps, LOTIC’s Electro-Catalytic Advanced Oxidation (EC-AOP) systems offer a safe, scalable way to cut chemical use, reduce sludge, and support sustainable operations.

Underground Water Treatment

Subsurface operations often generate acidic, metal-laden waters that are difficult and expensive to treat. LOTIC’s modular EC-AOP units provide rapid, on-site treatment of dewatering flows—removing heavy metals, suspended solids, and organics without chemical additives. This enables compliance with environmental discharge limits and reduces reliance on trucking or evaporation ponds.

Mining Vehicle Washdown

Wash bays are notorious for generating greasy, contaminated runoff. LOTIC units break down emulsified oils, diesel residue, and fine suspended solids with minimal operator input. The result? Cleaner water for reuse or safe discharge—and a leaner, more automated approach to managing maintenance fluids and site hygiene.

Remote Camp & Utilities Water

At fly-in-fly-out (FIFO) sites and accommodation camps, reliable water treatment is essential. LOTIC’s compact systems are ideal for treating greywater, blackwater, or bore-fed supplies at source. With minimal infrastructure needs and remote monitoring, they deliver consistent performance—even in Australia’s most isolated environments.

LOTIC empowers mines to reduce water consumption, chemical dependency, and environmental risk. From extending membrane life in RO systems to enabling safe water reuse for dust suppression, our EC-AOP solution aligns with modern ESG targets and evolving regulatory pressures.
