FOG CANNON TECHNOLOGY FOR WASTEWATER EVAPORATION IN MINING INDUSTRY, MECHANICAL EVAPORATORS

Mining operations generate large volumes of wastewater—typically containing high concentrations of dissolved salts (TDS), metals, and sometimes process chemicals—that are difficult to treat or discharge due to environmental regulations. Conventional methods like evaporation ponds are land-intensive, slow, and climate-dependent.

Fog cannon technology, also called spray evaporation systems, offers a simple, scalable, and low-cost alternative or supplement to traditional evaporation ponds or mechanical evaporators. By converting wastewater into ultra-fine droplets, the technology promotes rapid evaporation into the atmosphere, reducing liquid volumes for final disposal.

The Fog Cannon Evaporation System for mining wastewater management is an atmospheric spray evaporation unit, designed to reduce the volumetric load of saline or brine-rich effluents in remote or arid mining locations where conventional treatment methods (like reverse osmosis or thermal evaporators) are economically or technically unviable.
