At Centurion, we help mining operations solve water and wastewater challenges without slowing production. Our modular treatment systems are built for tough conditions, variable loads and strict compliance requirements.
Whether you run an iron ore, gold, lithium or any type of mining operation, we deliver practical water solutions that keep your site moving.
The water challenges mine sites face
Mine sites are under pressure to stay compliant, control costs and keep operations running. We understand the realities on site:
- Tighter licence limits and rising compliance risk
- Ageing or undersized treatment plants
- Downtime during shutdowns and expansions
- Ammonia, nutrient and solids overload
- High chemical transport, storage and safety risks
- Limited access to skilled operators and servicing in remote regions
- No reliable discharge or reuse strategy.
We fix these problems with fast, flexible and safe water and wastewater treatment solutions.
Your challenges solved
- Compliance made simple - our systems meet Australian discharge and reuse standards
- Low-maintenance & easy to use - designed for efficiency and minimal manual intervention
- Remote-ready - built to perform in isolated locations, with remote monitoring capability
- Flexible options - rent for temporary camps, upgrade or integrate existing infrastructure, or invest in a permanent system
- One partner, many services - water and wastewater treatment, modular accommodation and camp services, power and lifting equipment, and inspections - all from one trusted team.

Talison Lithium
Greenbushes, WA
To support Talison’s camp expansion, Centurion designed and installed a Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) wastewater plant, increasing capacity by 95kL/day to service 880 people. The system achieved “High Risk” Class A+ compliance, with automated controls and seamless integration into existing infrastructure, ensuring reliable, low-maintenance performance.
Outcome: High-quality effluent reuse, improved efficiency, future-ready system.
Atlas Iron
Sanjiv Ridge, WA
Centurion delivered a containerised water and wastewater treatment solution to support camp growth from 180 to 250 personnel. Built into compact 40ft units, the RO and WWTP systems integrated with the mine’s SCADA network for full automation and compliance with Class C discharge standards.
Outcome: Scalable, automated, and efficient system supporting mine expansion.
Major gold miner
Boddington, WA
Centurion designed and supplied a custom oily water separation and treatment system for a major truck wash upgrade, ensuring safe, compliant discharge. The system removes hydrocarbons and contaminants, allowing treated water to be reused for dust suppression and wash-down, reducing freshwater demand and operational costs.
Outcome: Improved water recycling, cost savings, and regulatory compliance.
