Mine Water Optimization
Water is used as an input in most mining processes and therefore, the availability of water affects a mine's throughput. In addition, water transportation can be expensive especially for mines in desert or high-altitude locations. Mine water optimization allows mines to plan and optimize the use of water, taking into account not only the transportation and storage costs but also its impact on throughput and revenues to understand the best sources, stocking and consumption strategies.
