Sembcorp teams up with EDB to launch groundbreaking wastewater testbed

Find out more about Singapore’s first living lab.

The water solutions company is looking to develop its competitive edge as it launches its Industrial Living Lab initiative. The initiative will see Sembcorp granting technology providers access and share insights to its partner wastewater treatment and waste-to-energy facilities on Jurong Island.

According to a statement by Sembcorp, the company and the EDB will also be jointly investing up to a total of $8m to support the commercialisation of research and development projects from the pilot-testing stage to market-ready levels.

"Under the partnership, proposals from technology providers will be jointly evaluated by Sembcorp
and EDB for their scalability, technological merits and economic impact to Singapore. Sembcorp‟s
researchers and engineers will then work with successful applicants to test bed their new
technologies in actual industrial settings," Sembcorp said.

"If the technologies are proven successful, they have the potential to be deployed in Sembcorp's global operations. This gives smaller players that do not own any infrastructure the chance to scale up their technologies and develop a highly-prized track record," the statement added.
