Delivering Solutions for Water Problems

Water is arguably the single most precious commodity on our planet. It ranges in quality from ‘safe to drink' to ‘heavily contaminated,' and ZI-CHEM is at the very heart of an industry providing water solutions to South and Southeast Asia.

The Diverse Properties of H2O

Just as water requires treatment to make it clean for drinking, when used for other purposes, it needs to be given other properties to maximize its effect. Be it Industrial manufacturing, power utilities, refrigeration and commercial air conditioning or mining and mineral processing, the expertise delivered by the ZI-CHEM team will always provide the solution.

Heading up this team in Jakarta is Regional Director, John Wilson, who talked passionately about his industry and the benefits it brings throughout so many countries. He used gold ore processing as an example of ZI-CHEM’s expertise coming to the rescue in a real life situation: "Cyanide is used to dissolve the gold ore, but during this process, if the pH of the water is too low, cyanide can be lost to the air. There may be an excess of calcium in the water, and they may be using lime, allowing a large scale deposit to build up in the pipes that can cause blockage; even damage," said John.
