DRAM is an innovative, chemical-free water treatment system developed by Nibeenabe to address contamination in mining-impacted regions. Using a multi-layer filtration process made from sustainable agricultural by-products, DRAM recovers up to 98% of valuable metals and reduces mercury emissions by 80%. Its modular, energy-efficient design makes it suitable for both artisanal and industrial mining operations.

Integrated IoT sensors and blockchain technology provide real-time monitoring and transparent tracking of water quality, reinforcing environmental accountability and trust. DRAM ensures that treated water meets or exceeds strict environmental standards, turning waste into a valuable resource and supporting a circular economy.

Beyond environmental impact, DRAM empowers communities through specialized training in water stewardship, with a focus on engaging indigenous and local women. By fostering local ownership and resilience, the technology not only safeguards ecosystems but also promotes socio-economic development. DRAM sets a new standard for sustainable water management in the global mining sector, aligning economic gains with ecological responsibility.
