The company was recently awarded a new contract by PUB, Singapore's National Water Agency, to deploy and maintain a Smart Water Grid Analytics Platform for its water supply network. Based on Suez’s Aquadvanced Water Networks platform, this advanced system will contribute to reinforcing PUB's operational efficiency and resilience.
The Smart Water Grid Analytics Platform can detect and localise water quality and pressure issues in the network. It can generate accurate simulation and propose necessary remedial actions for more effective decision making. PUB will gain improved visibility of the network conditions, with enhanced analytics capabilities to simulate and anticipate.
In the Philippines, Suez and construction company Jemco are collaborating to design, build, and operate a large-scale seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plant in Metro Iloilo to address the region's critical drinking water shortage. Commissioned by Metro Pacific Investment Corporation, the plant is set to be the largest facility of its kind in the Philippines, producing approximately 66,500 cubic metres of water daily, supplying drinking water to nearly 50,000 households and the industrial water needs of a nearby power plant.
The project marks another successful collaboration between SUEZ and JEMCO, following their joint venture on a major water reclamation facility in Muntinlupa City, Metro Manila. Designed for efficiency by implementing Suez’s advanced SeaDAF filter technology, the compact plant is expected to be completed within 24 months from the start of construction.
Meanwhile in China, following the success of the Qufu municipal wastewater treatment project, Suez and Shandong Public are extending their partnership to invest, build, and operate an industrial wastewater treatment plant in the Jining New Materials Industrial Park in Shandong Province, through a new joint venture. With a daily capacity of 10,000 cubic metres, the project has been awarded a 30-year concession. It will turn high-salinity wastewater into industrial water to supply the companies within the park, aiming to achieve 100% wastewater recycling.
The new wastewater treatment plant will be able to produce approximately 3.6 million cubic metres of alternative water per year – equivalent to the volume of around 1,500 Olympic-sized swimming pools. Additionally, 85% of the crystallised salt products coming from the high-salinity wastewater can be recycled for the production of sodium sulfate through the treatment process.
