Xylem XYL, a leading global water technology company focused on
addressing the world's most challenging water issues, has been awarded a
contract to supply treatment technology and systems for a new wastewater
treatment plant in Brazil that will serve 60,000 people. Construction is
currently underway with Xylem providing its Sanitaire® brand ICEAS
(intermittent cycle extended aeration system) biological technology to treat
wastewater in the city of Campo Grande in the Mato Grosso state of Brazil.
The contract for the Imbirussu wastewater treatment plant was awarded by Aguas
Guariroba, part of the EQUIPAV Group, which operates public water treatment
facilities in the Mato Grosso region of Brazil. Aguas Guariroba has invested
more than US$7million in the wastewater treatment plant, which will initially
improve wastewater effluent quality in 33 districts of Campo Grande.
“Xylem's Sanitaire ICEAS solution is proving very popular in this region due
to its energy efficiency and compact footprint. As urban populations expand
across Latin America, wastewater treatment is becoming an increasingly
important issue for public health and safety. Xylem is helping to address
these and other water issues, providing technical expertise along with
market-leading solutions,” said Richard Dixon, managing director, Xylem Latin
America. “We are pleased to partner with Aguas Guariroba on this project to
deliver safe treated wastewater for the city of Campo Grande.”
