SUEZ NWS (www.suesz-nws-com), the China-based operating company of SUEZ (Paris, France; www.suez-environnement.fr) recently won a contract with total investment of RMB 300 million (around $42 million) for centralized wastewater treatment in the Dongying Chemical Industry Park located in Dongying, Shandong. The project will boost local efforts to better manage water resources and further improve the environment.
The envisaged wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in the Dongying Chemical Industry Park will have a treatment capacity of 26,000 m3 per day. A joint venture formed between SUEZ NWS and its local partner will be responsible for the investment, construction and operation of the plant. The plant will provide industrial wastewater treatment services exclusively for enterprises in the park for the next 50 years. Construction work will begin in late 2019 and be completed by late 2020. Upon its completion, the plant will provide centralized treatment of existing industrial wastewater streams in the park. It will also have capacity to meet the growing treatment demand from future park projects. The WWTP will ensure the production of high-quality treated wastewater in compliance with standards, and the reuse of 40% of this water to supply the industries of the Park. This will greatly improve the water environment and drive the local circular economy.
