Sembcorp to Develop Singapore Wastewater Facility

Sembcorp has secured a contract to construct an integrated wastewater treatment facility in Jurong Island, Singapore.

Under the $40m contract, the Singapore-based water utility will provide industrial wastewater treatment services to a butyl rubber facility, owned by German chemical company Lanxess, from the new wastewater plant.

The new plant will double Sembcorp’s industrial wastewater capacity in Jurong Island and will process 9,600m³ per day of water initially for Lanxess and other customers.

The new wastewater treatment plant will be completed in the second quarter of 2012.
