Sembcorp opens US$40mn industrial wastewater treatment plant in Singapore

The S$40 million plant will serve chemical and petrochemical companies, including LANXESS and Jurong Aromatics Corp, in the newly developed Banyan, Tembusu and Angsana districts of the island.

The 9600 cubic metres per day industrial wastewater treatment plant can treat multiple streams of complex industrial wastewater and more than doubles Sembcorp’s current industrial wastewater treatment capacity in Singapore.

Sembcorp is also planning to develop a new technology and innovation centre, including laboratories and applied research and development (R&D) facilities, on Jurong Island. The centre will be based at the same site as the company’s new cogeneration plant in Banyan.
