Turn Industrial Waste Brines
Into Acid & Base

Coming Soon

Dyco Systems converts industrial waste brine back into usable acid and base — closing the loop on some of industry's most costly and environmentally challenging effluent streams.

Cleaner chemistry. Better economics.

Industrial operations generate vast volumes of waste brine that is costly to dispose of. Dyco converts that brine back into acid and base — turning a disposal problem into a resource.

Waste Brine In → Acid & Base Out

Our system takes industrial waste brine and converts it back into the acid and base it came from — cleanly, efficiently, and at a fraction of conventional treatment costs.

🏭

Waste Brine Intake

Sulfate and chloride-rich waste brines from mining, hydrometallurgical, and metal finishing operations.

⚗️

Electrochemical Conversion

Dyco's system splits the waste brine into its constituent acid and base streams.

🧪

Acid & Base Recovery

Usable acid and base are recovered at process-ready concentrations for direct reuse.

🔄

Closed Loop Return

Recovered acid and base are returned to the industrial process — targeting zero net discharge.

~2× savings over incumbent technology

Traditional neutralisation and disposal is costly and energy-intensive. Dyco replaces cost with value.

Incumbent Treatment

Higher operating cost per tonne treated
Reagent consumed & lost each cycle
Waste neutralised and landfilled
Ongoing environmental liability
No value recovery from waste stream
Carbon-intensive disposal logistics

Dyco Systems

Baseline cost — with revenue offsets
Reagent recovered and recycled
Waste converted to saleable products
Zero net discharge — ESG compliant
By-product revenue offsets OPEX
Lower carbon footprint per tonne
Total cost advantage with Dyco Up to 50% reduction in treatment OPEX

From burden to by-product

Across the most challenging hydrometallurgical and mining waste streams — converting environmental liabilities into recoverable value.

Sulfate Sulfate Waste Brines

High-sulfate waste streams from hydrometallurgical leach circuits converted back into usable sulfuric acid and base.

→ H₂SO₄ & base recovered

Chloride Chloride Waste Brines

High-salinity chloride effluents from mining and processing operations split back into HCl and caustic.

→ HCl & NaOH recovered

Acid Acid Mine Drainage

Acidic drainage from active and legacy mine sites treated to recover acid and neutralise the remaining stream.

→ Acid recovered / Neutralised water

Sulfate Tailings Pore Water

Sulfate-laden interstitial water from tailings storage facilities processed to recover acid and clean water.

→ Acid recovered / Clean water

Chloride Metal Plating Wastewater

Chloride and sulfate-rich rinse waters and spent bath solutions from electroplating and metal finishing operations converted back into process-ready acid and base.

→ HCl & caustic recovered

Mixed Mixed Industrial Brines

Complex multi-source waste brines from industrial operations where conventional neutralisation and disposal is costly and generates ongoing liability.

→ Acid & base recovered
