Veolia Water Technologies has been re-selected by Formosa Heavy Industries (FHI) Taiwan to provide total water solutions for Trust International Paper Corporation's (TIPCO) new ANDA power plant in the Philippines.
The project follows last year's contract win with FHI for San Miguel Corporation's Limay power plant in the Philippines, and like the former, the ANDA project will include the Actiflo® technology amongst other Veolia water technologies for a complete, customized water treatment solution.
Commenting on the win, Carlo Patteri, Veolia’s Business Development Director South East Asia Industrial, said:
"This contract is a testament of Veolia's capabilities as a water and wastewater solutions provider; with over 900 references and more than 20 years of experience with operating the Actiflo® system, Veolia has the deep insight and know-how that our partners and end users truly value. Our previous project with San Miguel Corporation was also an additional advantage for this new plant as both parties had positive experiences then, and were keen to work together again",
Veolia was also able to satisfy two other significant considerations from the customer. After the success of commercial operation of the first power plant, TIPCO is expecting to build the second power plant with a strict schedule that Veolia needed to commit to in order to deliver the ANDA plant on time.
The ANDA power plant will feature a total Veolia wastewater treatment solution that includes a pre-treatment process, demineralized water system, condensate polisher, and wastewater treatment system.
The feed water provided by coal-fired plants can contain impurities with high silica content and suspended solids, so an efficient water pretreatment system is essential to provide qualified water for demineralized water system. Veolia's Actiflo® technology will be used during the pre-treatment and wastewater treatment stages to treat the industrial water.
Carlo Patteri added that with the small footprint of the Actiflo® system in the project, Veolia was able to reduce significantly civil costs.
In a TV show that will explain the complex journey of the wastewater treatment process, Lakeside Equipment Corporation is set to feature in US Public Television’s All Access program with Andy Garcia.
