Project Overview

At Coal South Africa, long-term integrated water management plans are being developed for sites to mitigate non-compliance risks and post-closure water management liabilities. These will be based on the development of robust conceptual hydrogeological models, which will provide high confidence level water and salt balances and improve prediction and quantification of risks at the receptor.

At Coal South Africa, long-term integrated water management plans are being developed for sites to mitigate non-compliance risks and post-closure water management liabilities. These will be based on the development of robust conceptual hydrogeological models, which will provide high confidence level water and salt balances and improve prediction and quantification of risks at the receptor. At Coal South Africa, water-treatment plants are used extensively to treat mine-affected water. The flagship eMalahleni water-reclamation plant, built-in 2007, treats around 50 million liters of mine-affected water every day and supplies water to the eMalahleni Municipality. Coal South Africa is now piloting passive water-treatment technologies at three of its sites.
