A growing sewer network create issues such as infrastructure damage, odour complaints and potential health and safety hazards, as well as accelerated corrosion of sewer assets, pump station wells, discharge manholes and treatment plants.
Municipal wastewater
A fast-growing sewer network and the disposal of untreated or poorly treated wastewater in natural waterways can lead to dramatic consequences on biodiversity, the quality of our water resources and the health and safety of people.
With rapid urbanisation and development, and increasing environmental pressure on industrial emissions, there is an increasing pressure on water utilities to find safer and more sustainable solutions to prevent odour, protect existing and new infrastructure, and improve wastewater treatment performance.
While wastewater management and pollution prevention are a priority, waste-to-energy programs are increasingly needed to improve the productivity of treatment facilities by maximising the economics of biogas generation from anaerobic systems.
