Domestic Membrane Technology Pioneers Advanced Treatment for Mega-Scale Coal Mine Water
Membrane-based advanced treatment and resource utilization of mine water represents a crucial pathway toward realizing the vision that "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets." This approach significantly reduces mine water pollution while creating sustainable water sources, embodying a concrete commitment to China's ecological protection and high-quality development strategy in the Yellow River Basin.
We proudly announce that
Shandong Jozzon Membrane Technology Co., Ltd. has been awarded
the reverse osmosis membrane supply contract for the advanced mine water treatment project at China Coal Ordos Energy Chemical Co., Ltd.'s Tuk facility in November 2025. This milestone achievement represents
China's first comprehensive deployment of domestic reverse osmosis membranes in a newly constructed mega-scale coal mine water treatment project, successfully breaking the longstanding dominance of imported products in this premium segment and ensuring complete self-sufficiency in critical core technologies.
Strategically located in Tuk Town, Uxin Banner, Ordos City, this pioneering initiative stands as a flagship project
for high-salinity water resource utilization within the Yellow River Basin. It serves as a powerful demonstration for advancing green and low-carbon transformation across the coal mining industry while providing robust infrastructure support for Tuk Industrial Park's sustainable development objectives.
The facility boasts an impressive production capacity of
3,000 m³/h, employing an sophisticated integrated process of "V-filters + Ultrafiltration + Reverse Osmosis." This system transforms high-salinity mine water from the Menkeqing, Muduchaodeng, and Hulusu coal mines - with TDS levels ranging from 3,100 to 16,700 mg/L - into purified water that meets Class III standards according to China's Environmental Quality Standards for Surface Water (GB 3838-2002), achieving final salinity levels below 1,000 mg/L. The high-quality effluent serves multiple purposes including process water for local chemical plants, ecological replenishment, and agricultural irrigation, truly realizing
the potential of wastewater as a valuable resource.
Reverse osmosis technology forms the cornerstone of large-scale high-salinity mine water treatment. In a decisive break from convention, the China Coal Tuk project employs all
6,484 reverse osmosis membranes from Jozzon's proprietary product lines. The configuration includes
4,884 JBW-8040-400/34-FR Enhanced Fouling-Resistant RO membranes handling mine water with TDS of 3,100-5,000 mg/L, complemented by
1,600 JSW-8040-440 Fouling-Resistant High-Pressure RO membranes tackling challenging water streams with TDS concentrations of 12,000-17,000 mg/L.
Since their market introduction in 2013, Jozzon Reverse Osmosis membranes have
benefited from continuous dedicated R&D, evolving from initial brackish water reverse osmosis capabilities to a comprehensive product portfolio. The flagship Enhanced High-Pressure Fouling-Resistant RO membranes have demonstrated exceptional performance across numerous high-salinity, high-pollution, and wastewater reuse applications in petrochemical, coal chemical, steel, and mining industries. Recent years have witnessed the successful deployment of advanced membrane series including Highly Fouling-Resistant High-Pressure RO, Fouling-Resistant Ultra-High-Pressure RO, and Seawater Desalination RO membranes in specialized applications involving challenging foulants, high-salinity wastewater, and specific separation processes. These innovations deliver diverse, high-performance, and cost-effective Chinese Membrane Solutions for complex water treatment scenarios, signaling
China's transition from follower to leader in the premium water treatment membrane sector.
"Fouling Challenges? Trust Jozzon Membranes" - The successful implementation in this mega-scale high-salinity mine water project marks a pivotal milestone in Jozzon's product evolution. Building on this achievement, Jozzon remains committed to advancing membrane technology innovation, addressing not only domestic water resource challenges but also extending its expertise to global regions facing freshwater scarcity. The company is positioned to internationalize its
Chinese technological solutions for creating "New Water Sources for Industrial Parks" through cost-effective treatment of high-salinity wastewater.
Jozzon maintains unwavering conviction that through continuous technological innovation and practical implementation, we can meaningfully reduce freshwater extraction and wastewater discharge, enable efficient water resource recycling, consistently deliver "Jozzon Excellence" to support green, low-carbon, and sustainable development in industrial parks, while composing new chapters in both national ecological civilization and global water security.
