BN Aqua Solutions is a 100% black owned water treatment company which was established in 2016. The company was created to alleviate water shortages facing the country by treating contaminated water from Municipalities, Boreholes, Perennial Streams and Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) to SANS 241 drinking stage.
The long-term business plan is to build small scale modular treatment plants (5 - 10 mega-litres per day) within the mining sites in order to treat this water and sell to the operating mines with the intention to further grow and be competitive in treating more volume of acid mine drainage. The excess treated water from the mines can increase the water-stressed municipalities to benefit the surrounding communities in both rural/urban areas. This potable water can be used for agricultural purposes and this will increase the country’s food security and improve the livelihoods and hygiene of the communities.
