Mining Solutions with VSEP Technology

Environmentally Responsible Mining

Modern mining is highly regulated and increasingly focused on environmental stewardship. Before operations begin, companies must complete comprehensive environmental impact studies—a process that can take over a decade. As regulations tighten, New Logic’s VSEP (Vibratory Shear Enhanced Process) technology is helping mining operations meet and exceed compliance standards.

Solving the Wastewater Challenge

Mining wastewater can be acidic, hazardous, or even radioactive. While lined storage ponds offer temporary containment, perpetual storage is not a sustainable solution. Every mine has a finite lifespan, and responsible closure requires effective remediation strategies. VSEP provides a powerful, membrane-based solution for treating complex waste streams, enabling acid recovery, water reuse, and safe discharge.

Why VSEP?

  • Handles extreme pH, high solids, and radioactive or organic-rich liquids
  • Offers over 200 membrane options for precise molecular separation
  • Enables acid recycling and metal concentration
  • Reduces environmental impact and operational costs

VSEP has been successfully deployed across a wide range of mining processes:

Acid Purification & Recycling

  • Phosphoric acid
  • Sulfuric acid
  • Boric acid

Metal Recovery & Concentration

  • Pregnant leach solutions (PLS)
  • Rare earth metals
  • Precious metals from wastewater
  • Lithium brine separation

Dewatering & Water Reuse

  • Titanium dioxide
  • Calcium carbonate
  • Bentonite clay
  • Tailings pond water
  • Gypsum ponds from phosphate mining

Specialty Applications

  • Copper mine sulfate removal
  • Radioactive tailings water
  • Micro-diamond slurry

Custom Solutions for Your Mine

Whether you’re dealing with aggressive acids, high solids, or radioactive waste, VSEP offers a tailored solution to meet your needs. Our engineers will help you design a system that maximizes efficiency and environmental compliance.
