Sembcorp opens first industrial water reclamation plant in China

The S$21.5 million facility is capable of producing up to 20,000 cubic metres per day of industrial water.

Sembcorp opened its first industrial water reclamation plant in China capable of producing 20,000 cubic metres per day of industrial water and up to 4,000 cubic metres per day of demineralised water for supply to customers in the Zhangjiagang Free Trade Port Zone. The RMB106 million (S$21.5 million) facility has the unique capability of producing industrial water using treated effluent from Sembcorp’s centralised industrial wastewater treatment plant in the zone, thereby promoting water reuse and environmental conservation.

With this facility, Sembcorp’s total investment in the Zhangjiagang Free Trade Port Zone amounts to approximately RMB320 million (S$64.9 million). Sembcorp now manages the entire water cycle of the free trade port zone, providing total water and wastewater management solutions to its customers.

At the same time, Sembcorp’s industrial wastewater treatment facilities are capable of treating highly concentrated wastewater with chemical oxygen demand of up to 14,000 milligrammes per litre directly from source, without requiring its customers to invest in pre-treatment facilities.
