Contact us2014-12-15 · In the mining industry selenium removal is complicated by the fact that flows of mine impacted waters are often high, the selenium concentration is dilute, water temperatures are low, and there may be multiple points of discharge in remote locations, which increases the cost of a centralized treatment facility with the need to install expensive water collection infrastructure. Additionally, selenium laden industrial waters typically contain sulphate, chloride, bicarbonate and nitrate in concentrations that are often orders of magnitude greater than that of selenium. Depending on the water quality and site specific discharge requirements, some of these constituents may not require removal. Yet many existing technologies remove the majority of these constituents along with selenium. This additional removal increases overall treatment and waste disposal costs as these removal …
