PT Bayu has already started designing a water treatment plant for the production of drinking water and industrial process water in Medang Kampai. This plant will have a capacity of approximately 450 m3/h and is expected to be commissioned in the second quarter of 2023. In addition, PT Bayu is currently starting to develop a facility that produces drinking water from a lake in Bengkalis with a final capacity of 360 m3/h. NX Filtration has also secured an order from PT Bayu for the first industrial wastewater project in Indonesia based on dNF technology.

These new orders follow previous projects PT Bayu projects in Indonesia for which NX Filtration supplied its dNF technology. In Sumatra, a 180 m3/h drinking water plant has successfully been running for over a year, providing the city of Dumai with drinking water produced from the local Masjid river. NX Filtration’s technology is also already successfully being used to produce drinking water at Meranti Island since December 2022 (54 m3/h with future expansion potential to 200 m3/h) and for Rumah Sakit Cipto Mangunkusomo, Indonesia’s biggest state owned hospital in Jakarta since 2021.
