Project Overview
The coal mine water reclamation technology treats the coal mine water and makes it suitable for the drinking puposes. The process in principle has three modules. In the first, the suspended particulate matters, some of which are also colloidal in nature, are removed. The second module removes the dissolve matters while in the third step microbiological contaminations are removed. NML has also developed novel materials to be used for the removal of dissolved matters.
