UBA Biologix specializes in the development of water treatment systems that rely on the biological breakdown and removal of contaminants in mining and industrial waste waters. UBA Biologix is contracted by mining companies, such as the global mining giant Anglo American, to remove toxic chemicals, such as sulfate and selenium species, from effluent, recycling them into valuable re-sellable commodities. UBA Biologix was initially created to reduce the levels of sulfate in mine wastewater in South Africa. Today, UBA Biologix offers its customers a customised solution for a breadth of water contaminants around the world.
