Design proposal

Kurmuk Gold Mine

SewTreat proposed a containerised 400 kL/day potable-water treatment plant for DRA Global at Kurmuk Gold Mine in Ethiopia. Designed for raw borehole/dam water, the solution combines solids removal, clarification and final disinfection with automated monitoring to support water supply for the mine’s camp, plant and services.
