The facility will produce industrial water using treated effluent from Sembcorp’s centralized industrial wastewater treatment plant in the zone, thereby promoting water reuse and environmental conservation.
The water reclamation facility is capable of producing 20,000 cubic metres per day of industrial water and about 4,000 cubic metres per day of demineralised water for supply to customers in the Zhangjiagang Free Trade Port Zone.
Sembcorp now manages the entire water cycle of the free trade port zone, providing total water and wastewater management solutions to its customers.
This total water management model reduces liquid discharge and conserves precious water resources, and represents a significant advancement for the water management industry in China, the company said.
Sembcorp president and CEO Tang Kin Fei said the company has efficient and technologically-advanced facilities in Zhangjiagang that can provide wastewater management and solutions for water reuse to customers in the free trade port zone.
