Water Treatment
People need water for cooking and drinking, for household use and in industry. To that end water is extracted from groundwater, river water and seawater and is treated. Used water has to be purified before it is discharged. Independent integrated water systems are often designed for use in industry. Royal Haskoning also advises on the granting of permits for discharging used water.
Royal Haskoning has designed dozens of large and small water purification plants and managed their construction. All the necessary technical, structural, electrical, mechanical and automation knowledge is available. Royal Haskoning also has its own biochemical patent for radical phosphate and nitrate removal. Royal Haskoning has knowledge of and experience in anaerobic and aerobic purification, biological, chemical and biochemical, bio-membrane plants, sand filters and halophyte filters.
Mains water is often too expensive or not available for industrial use. Great savings can often be made in industry through the sophisticated use and reuse of water. Royal Haskoning has great expertise and experience in all types of industries, such as metal, chemical and petrochemical, pharmaceutical, foodstuffs, dairy products and drink, tank storage and transshipment, the paper and textile industry.
