Degrémont wins SmartRack filtration system contract
Water treatment specialist Degrémont, a subsidiary of utility company Suez Environnement, has won the contract for the design, construction and commissioning of a 1000 m3 per day wastewater membrane filtration system, SmartRack, for Thales Australia at its Mulwala facility in New South Wales.
Covered by five patents, SmartRack uses a novel rack system that allows complete interchangeability of ultrafiltration membrane modules. Due to Degrémont’s innovative design, the solution allows complete flexibility and scalability for future needs, and can be implemented for drinking water production, desalination, industrial process water, wastewater treatment and re-use.
The reference contract is expected to offer significant opportunities for the rollout of this technology in Australia and the rest of the world.
