In this report, Technavio highlights the stringent regulations for waste and wastewater treatment as one of the key emerging trends in the global mining chemicals market:
Global mining chemicals market: Stringent regulations for waste and wastewater treatment
Government and other regulatory agencies enforce regulations and policies to ensure that the quality of water near mining sites is not contaminated. To comply with the regulations mandated by these agencies, the mining companies have developed water management plants to minimize the risk of water pollution and contamination.
"Waste and wastewater can be cleaned efficiently by implementing two types of technologies, active and passive. Active treatment technologies use energy or chemicals to improve the quality of water, while passive technologies depend only on natural processes such as microorganisms and gravity. The level of water contamination, the proximity of the water reservoir to the mining site and the exposure level of water bodies to pollution determine the type of technology to be implemented," says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on specialty chemicals.
