UK-based water technology company <\/strong>Bluewater Bio<\/a><\/strong> has secured a USD 33 mn contract <\/strong>to upgrade the North Sitra wastewater treatment plant in Bahrain<\/strong>, according to a press release<\/a> issued on Saturday. The upgrade will double the plant's capacity to 30 mns of liters per day and will be completed within 24 months. The North Sitra plant is currently treating half the generated wastewater in Bahrain.<\/p>\n

The details:<\/strong> The contract will see Bluewater Bio acting as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor and technology supplier, utilizing their advanced HYBACS<\/a> and FilterClear<\/a> treatment technologies and smart systems, the press release adds. <\/p>\n

How it works:<\/strong> Notable features in Bluewater Bio\u2019s HYBACS tech is its ability to enable an existing activated sludge process to treat double the flow and load as a conventional system while using 30% less energy associated with air seeping into materials, according to their website<\/a>. It also has the option for offline installation of its smart system along with modular construction of the plant to allow for quick deployment and expansion. FilterClear on the other hand is a \u201cpressure multimedia filter tech capable of separating suspended solids from a wide range of waters with a comparatively high performance, even at high loading velocities,\u201d the website<\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

The company has other projects in the region: <\/strong>Bluewater Bio is also using its FilterClear technology at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST)\u2019s seawater reverse osmosis plant<\/a> and its HYBACS system at the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant (IWTP8)<\/a> in Jubail.<\/p>\n

About Bluewater Bio: <\/strong>The firm develops tech for cost-efficient, environmentally friendly water and wastewater treatment applications, their website<\/a> said. Bluewater Bio aims to develop products that utilize less energy, less land and fewer chemicals than competing technologies, while focussing primarily on the \u201crapid upgrading, optimisation and monitoring of water and wastewater treatment plants,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
