Mining
WEC is a forerunner in mine water and wastewater treatment with a major focus on modular installations throughout Africa. Our process offerings include sewage treatment for mine camps, water reuse and resource recovery to potable, discharge or irrigation standards.
Effective Mining Turnkey Solutions
WEC package plants are well-suited for the mining environment with extended plant lifespans and ease of maintenance. Our cost-effective pre-engineered package plants are ideal for mine camp expansions and provide a holistic solution from potable water preparation through to wastewater treatment.

Resource Recovery
Resource recovery is a key step in process and profitability optimisation with reduced waste production and recycling of valuable commodities. These processes are highly sought after in the gold, platinum, uranium and copper mines throughout Africa and internationally.
With the current focus on refurbishment and re-opening of old mine shafts, WEC is perfectly positioned for dewatering of mine shafts and have recently produced an arsenic precipitation plant for a mine in Northern Africa which is dewatering heavily polluted pit water to reinstate profitable mining operations.
