Organised by ChinaWaterNet, an environmental online media in China, the award recognised the company’s technical, operational and management excellence in providing water and wastewater treatment solutions to industrial parks in China, as well as its success in securing and implementing water projects which support China’s industrial growth while helping customers and cities to conserve water resources and protect the environment.
“We are honoured to be recognised as a provider of water solutions in China’s industrial parks,” said Alan Yau, CEO of the company’s China subsidiary.
We have worked on areas such as industrial wastewater treatment and total water management over the years, and will continue to support the central government’s drive towards a more sustainable environment, he added.
Present in China’s national industrial parks such as Zhangjiagang Free Trade Port Zone, Nanjing Chemical Industrial Park and Tianjin Harbour Economic Area, the company has supported China’s recent environmental initiatives, including the policy of promoting third-party participation in reducing pollution in industrial parks.
In terms of industrial wastewater treatment, the company introduced the concept of developing, owning and operating third-party centralised facilities which can take multiple streams of concentrated industrial wastewater directly from companies in an industrial park, and effectively treat it to meet environmental limits without any pre-treatment required by the customers.
Last year, a significant milestone was the acquisition of an industrial wastewater treatment plant in Jiangsu province. Targeted to be completed by early 2016, the industrial wastewater treatment facility in the Lianyungang Lingang Chemical Industrial Park will be reconfigured and upgraded to treat high concentration industrial wastewater directly from source.
Supported by the Jiangsu Environment Protection Department, this transfer-own-operate project, with a capacity of 20,000 cubic m per day, offers a model that can be replicated in other industrial parks across Jiangsu and other provinces.
