Never worry about your tailings and wastewater treatment again.
If your mine is like most, chances are it faces challenges other treatment plants don’t.
- it is remote and you’re looking for a reliable, simple-to-operate system that doesn’t take a Ph.D to operate.
- it produces high-strength contaminants and you need a treatment system that can consistently produce compliance.
- electricity doesn’t come cheap and every dollar saved by an energy-efficient system goes straight to your bottom line.
Even if you are looking for all three, it’s not too much to ask. Nexom’s suite of reliable, efficient technologies feature prominently at numerous mines, and can enable compliance with ammonia, metals, and numerous other contaminants.
REMOVE METALS TO ULTRA-LOW LEVELS.
Selenium, cadmium, zinc, phosphorus, and more are no match for Blue PRO reactive filtration. Meet your metals limits by getting to microgram-per-liter levels with the most efficient chemistry, all within a user-friendly system built on the proven, continuous-backwash upflow sand filter platform. The proprietary Blue PRO process achieves unprecedented treatment levels by coating the sand media in the filter with the reactant, virtually ensuring contact with whatever contaminant you’re trying to remove and maximizing chemical efficiency in the process.

LET US HANDLE YOUR DIRTY WORK
You need a system that doesn’t care about even loading, one that won’t fail the moment ammonia or nitrates spike. The BioPorts MBBR was built for situations exactly like this; by amassing and housing the biology that treats ammonia or nitrates on HDPE media (rather than just wasting it downstream or using a recycle process to recover a portion of it), BioPorts is ready for your high-strength and highly-variable flows. And thanks to our patented media and aeration design by one of the most experienced teams in MBBR reaction kinetics, BioPorts MBBRs are one of the most durable and reliable, yet simplest-to-operate technologies available.


EVEN IN FREEZING WATER, YOU CAN TREAT AMMONIA TO <1 MG/L
For mines in the northern U.S. and Canada, it’s not hard to imagine your ponds dropping to temperatures at which it was long thought that biological treatment stops. Thanks to proprietary advances designed into our SAGR post-lagoon nitrification beds, we can pre-build the nitrifying bacteria necessary to remove the ammonia so you can discharge all winter long, even when the water is <1ºC (34ºF).
