💧 Delivering Sustainable Water Solutions in West Africa 🌍

WEC Water is proud to have recently commissioned two water treatment plants and a sewage treatment plant for a gold mine in Ghana’s western region.

🔹 The potable water treatment plant treats borehole water to deliver 20 m³/h of safe drinking water for the mine, by activated filter media, granular activated carbon filtration, and final disinfection by calcium hypochlorite dosing and UV.

🔹 The 88 m³/h process water treatment plant is designed to reduce suspended solids and turbidity present in the ring main water to achieve the client’s required discharge standards. The process train consists of coagulant dosing followed by dual media filtration.

🔹 Designed with flexibility in mind, the sewage treatment plant employs a conventional activated sludge (CAS) process that can be seamlessly converted to an MBBR system. This ensures reliable performance as the mine’s workforce transitions from approximately 1,800 personnel during construction phase to about 550 permanent staff. The plant is capable of treating flows ranging from 16 m³/d to 268 m³/d.

This project demonstrates WEC Water’s ability to provide tailored, and robust, treatment solutions that meet the unique operational challenges of the mining sector.

🚀Project Commissioned!

WEC Water is proud to announce the successful commissioning of our latest project with a municipality in the Free State. 💧

We designed, supplied, manufactured, delivered, installed, and commissioned a state-of-the-art 4 MLD water treatment plant that treats river water to potable water standards, providing safe and clean drinking water to the community.

As part of the next phase, the existing 2.6 MLD plant and abstraction works will also be upgraded. Once both projects are complete, the community will benefit from 6.6 MLD of potable water—a significant step toward improved water security and a sustainable future. 🌍

The treatment train includes clarification, filtration, and final disinfection, ensuring consistently high-quality water.
WEC Water remains committed to delivering innovative water treatment solutions that transform lives. 💧
