Optimizing water management in mining
Increasing Water Recovery with Innovative Chemical Solutions for Tailings Management
Water recovery and reuse in mining operations has become essential, especially for operations in water-stressed mining regions where sustainable water management practices directly impact operational viability and environmental compliance.
Clariant Mining Solutions offers advanced rheology-modifying flocculants for tailings handling and dewatering to help mining companies improve water usage and recovery.

Rheology Modifiers to Improve Thickening of Mining Tailings
Water management, particularly in water-stressed mining regions, is a critical sustainability challenge for the mining industry.
Clariant Mining Solutions helps mine operators maximize tailings water recovery through advanced rheology modifiers that optimize tailings thickening processes, enabling mines to pump higher-solids tailings, reducing water loss to evaporation and keeping more water in the beneficiation plant.
Rheology Modifiers
FLOTICOR™ RM Rheology Modifiers
FLOTICOR™ RM rheology modifiers enable precise control over slurry properties for diverse tailings types, including ultrafines, allowing mining operations to increase water recovery while maintaining optimal rheological characteristics.
FLOTICOR™ RM rheology modifiers effectively reduce yield stress and viscosity in mining pulps and slurries enabling the transport of high solids pulps and minimizing water requirements for material handling.
