Limited Use of Treatment Chemicals Restricting Growth
The research service focuses on analysing whether there are opportunities for supplying waste water treatment chemicals in the mining sector. Ghana and Tanzania's gold mining sectors were examined in this research. There is minimal uptake of chemicals for waste water treatment in Ghana and Tanzania's mining sectors. Lack of adequate enforcement of regulations governing discharge has resulted in a limited drive to ensure mining companies comply with environmental guidelines. It is expected that increasing oversight by the countries' environmental protection agencies will result in higher levels of waste water treatment.
