MIOX Supplies Oxidant Units to Colombian Water Plant

MIOX Corporation has supplied two MIOX RIO Grande mixed oxidant units to the largest water treatment plant in Colombia.

The Francisco Wiesner treatment plant purifies water with chlorine gas, while MIOX’s technologies treat water using just salt, water and power to generate a dilute disinfectant on site.

The installation of the two RIO Grande systems is the first phase of a larger project planned for the plant.

Three additional RIO Grande systems will be needed to fully replace the gas chlorine that is currently being used at the facility.

The plant supplies water to eight million residents in Bogota.
