BioGill chosen to address pollution in China

Australian biotechnology company BioGill has been announced as a Top 100 Environmental Technology in the Chinese Government’s 3iPET program to address air, soil and water pollution in China.

BioGill manufactures above-ground, attached-growth bioreactors that bring together the power of science and nature to help treat environmentally damaging wastewater streams. The bioreactors provide good air and liquid conditions for microorganisms to grow and thrive, effectively turbocharging nutrient removal from water.

The 3iPET program was launched by the Foreign Economic Cooperation Office (FECO), with the support of the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) of China, to use the best environmental technologies from around the world to tackle the challenges of pollution. BioGill is the only Australian technology to be chosen for the program.

“Being included in this list of who’s who in environmental technologies is a significant endorsement for our water treatment technology,” said Mikael Krogh, managing director, BioGill Asia.

Two BioGill distribution partners are already in place in China. The first is Shanghai Youbo Environmental Technology, a company with more than two decades of experience in environmental and energy-saving technologies, focusing on the east and north-west China area. The second distributor is Tianjin Teli Environment Technology, an engineering design company with successful water treatment projects across the country. The focus areas for this distributor are China’s core district, namely Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.

“The 3iPET program represents a significant step in improving water quality, and our low-cost, eco-friendly technology is ideally placed to play a role in this massive initiative,” said Krogh.
