Nalco Water, the Ecolab, Inc. (St. Paul, Minn.) water-management brand, announced the opening of a wastewater treatment plant in Shell Jurong Island, Singapore. Commencing operations earlier this year, this facility is designed to handle variable bio-treater wastewater. The plant utilizes Ecolab’s ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane system and is almost 100% automated.

With the capacity to treat and reuse up to 24,000 cubic metres of wastewater every month, the facility stands as a testament to Ecolab’s commitment to helping customers move toward responsible water consumption. 

Gregory Lukasik, senior vice president and Market Head of Southeast Asia, Ecolab said: “We’re thrilled to have achieved this key milestone, demonstrating once again that sustainability and business performance can be pursued in tandem. By focusing on water at an enterprise level, companies can identify opportunities that meet both their sustainability and business goals. Aligned with Ecolab’s focus on impactful goals, including saving 300 billion gallons of water by 2030, we’re proud to support our valued customers in promoting responsible water consumption and contributing to Singapore’s sustainable future.”
