H2O Innovation: Genesys Launches New Water Treatment Product Range for the Mining Sector
April 23 2020 - 8:00AM
(TSXV: HEO) – H2O Innovation Inc. (“H2O Innovation” or the
“Corporation”) is pleased to announce a new product range from its
independent subsidiary, Genesys, dedicated to the mining industry.
The manufacturer of specialty chemicals for water treatment
systems, Genesys, launched the Genmine range following three and a
half years of exhaustive research and product development. The
range includes antiscalants and cleaners designed to tackle issues
specific to the treatment of minewater. There is also a software
package to help plant operators work out which antiscalant to use
and gauge the appropriate dosage level and frequency.
The use of membranes to treat water in the mining industry has
exploded in the last five years. Genesys has identified over 400
membrane plants being used around the world to treat waste
minewater for reuse or discharge into the environment as well as to
enhance the recovery of precious metals. These plants tend to
operate outside the membrane manufacturers’ usage guidelines, due
to the extreme chemistry of minewater, which contains excessive
levels of sulphates, suspended solids and soluble metals. These
characteristics can lead to challenging scaling and fouling of
membranes – challenges Genesys was keen to address.
“The new antiscalants we have formulated can operate at extremes
of pH, both acidic and alkaline, to control calcium sulphate and
other common scales”, explained Steve Chesters, Managing
Director of Genesys. “The entire range is uniquely
formulated to increase membrane life, reduce downtime, increase
energy efficiency and reduce cleaning frequency”.
Already well positioned, the Genesys team is supplying over 20
mines worldwide with its other products and estimates that the
potential market is between $30-40 M. The Genmine range should give
Genesys a significant advantage in penetrating this new but
fast-growing market. Genmine will now be available through the
Corporation’s large specialty chemicals distribution network
(combining PWT and Genesys), which includes 100 distributors active
in more than 70 countries.
