Tailings water management, safe, efficient and compliant
Optimize tailings water management for cost-effective protection of communities and the environment
Tailings water management is a challenging obligation in many mining operations. Mining gangue pumped into tailings ponds requires constant monitoring to protect the surrounding environment and local residents. Often carried out on site, the control of the multiple necessary parameters such as inlet, water table, neighboring water bodies, and dam level can be a time consuming and error-prone affair. Endress+Hauser offers a comprehensive portfolio for accurate, efficient tailings management.
