Understanding salt dynamics to facilitate water reuse on coal mine sites. Coal mining in Central Queensland occurs in a water scarce region. Coal is a very high value product per unit of water consumed. The industry wishes to expand and to meet current water needs partially by increasing water reuse on site. Difficulties associated with managing salt, in its various forms across a mine site, limit this. This project will produce operational guidelines to overcome these limitations allowing th ....Understanding salt dynamics to facilitate water reuse on coal mine sites. Coal mining in Central Queensland occurs in a water scarce region. Coal is a very high value product per unit of water consumed. The industry wishes to expand and to meet current water needs partially by increasing water reuse on site. Difficulties associated with managing salt, in its various forms across a mine site, limit this. This project will produce operational guidelines to overcome these limitations allowing the coal industry to decrease its water footprint by increasing and properly managing water reuse.Read moreRead less
