Large-scale water and wastewater projects partnership

Monday, 22 April, 2013

Microvi Biotechnologies is partnering with MWH Global to bring its water technologies to Australia and the Asia-Pacific.

Building on a number of commercial projects already operating in Australia, Microvi and MWH are working on projects that deal with the treatment of wastewater removing organic carbon and ammonia and a variety of pollutants in water, including nitrate. Future plans include working with three major water utilities in the Asia-Pacific to build large-scale demonstration plants that will incorporate Microvi’s technologies based on its proprietary MicroNiche Engineering platform.

Microvi’s suite of technologies is claimed to offer significant advantages over conventional methods including: smaller footprint, no secondary waste or sludge, lower energy demand and ease of retrofit to existing plants.
