Koch Membrane to supply PURON membrane bioreactor modules to France

The project will upgrade and expand the capacity of the existing conventional wastewater treatment plant, which is next to the Palace of Versailles gardens and is owned by Le Syndicat Mixte d’Assainissement de la Région Ouest de Versailles.

Delivery of the PURON membrane modules is scheduled for end of 2012/early 2013, with start-up in 2013. The treatment plant will be Koch Membrane Systems’ largest MBR project in Europe.

Koch Membrane says that demand for PURON MBR technology in France continues to increase steadily with 13 orders and start-ups in the last 12 months for large-scale municipal projects.
