Amiad secures project for wastewater treatment in Brazil

Facility will save approx. 1,000 litres of clean drinking water per second

 

Amiad, the producer and global supplier of water filters and filtration systems for the industrial, municipal and irrigation markets, is pleased to announce that it will provide its proprietary SpinKlin Disc Filters, part of the Arkal family of products, for the Aquapolo tertiary wastewater treatment project in São Paulo, Brazil. The facility will treat secondary effluent from a local sewage plant to supply water for industrial use at the Capuave Petrochemical Complex.

 

Under the aegis of Foz do Brasil, an environmental engineering company, and SABESP, the São Paulo State sanitation company, the Aquapolo plant will be the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere and the fifth-largest in the world. The SpinKlin Disc Filters, part of the Arkal family of products, will form a key component in the pre-treatment filtration process and will be used to protect the plant's ultrafiltration membranes: the water will first be filtered by the SpinKlin Discs, which are designed to retain solids with a diameter larger than 400 microns, before being biologically treated and passing through the ultrafiltration membrane modules.

 

The Company's technology will be used to recycle and clean secondary effluent to provide water for the petrochemical plant. This will replace the current practice of using drinking water for industrial purposes, which will increase the supply of potable water for the local community and improve public health in a region that is one of the driest in Brazil. In addition, it will help prevent pollution as sewage will be treated and reused rather than released into the Tamanduateí River.

 

Arik Dayan, Chief Executive Officer of Amiad, said: "We are delighted to be part of this project that will reduce the use of drinking water for industrial purposes and hence increase the supply of clean water for the local community. This demonstrates the benefits of our technology in geographies such as Brazil and South America that suffer from a lack of this crucial resource. This project also testifies to the value of the addition of the Arkal product range, which allows us to increase our presence in this key market, and highlights the importance of Amiad's solutions within the filtration process - forming part of our goal to be at the core of any water system throughout the world."
