In an era of tightening water regulations and rising operational costs, investing in a robust water treatment system isn’t just smart - it’s essential. The CDE MicroPond solution encompasses the AquaCycle™ thickener and ProPress™ filter press, delivering powerful value across five key areas:
1. Minimize Site Footprint
Traditional settling ponds demand significant real estate and bring environmental concerns. Water treatment systems shrink that footprint, and, with dewatering tech like ProPress™, can eliminate ponds altogether.
2. MaximiZe Resource Recovery
Settling ponds lock in fine, high-value particles. Our systems separate and reclaim these materials efficiently - reducing waste and recovering products with a marketable edge.
3. Cut Operational Costs
Treating or sourcing fresh water is expensive. By recycling up to 95% of process water onsite, our systems can drastically lower water bills and reduce freshwater dependency, all while supporting sustainability goals.

4. Enhance Safety & Compliance
Open ponds pose environmental and safety hazards. Replacing them with closed-loop, engineered solutions mitigates risk, simplifies permitting, and reinforces your regulatory standing.
5. Unlock Wet Processing at Water Scarce Sites
Where water is limited or costly to extract, CDE systems make wet processing a viable option - enabling high-quality, washed materials with only a small freshwater top-up needed.
