Challenge
Due to continuous growth in population and industry, wastewater management and reclamation is an important topic for Singapore to ensure a future sustainable water supply. Although water is precious for this city-state, so is space. When Siemens Water Technologies was selected by Sembcorp plant design and operations firm to supply equipment and engineering for the membrane filtration portion of the Sembcorp NEWater Plant, space requirements and power consumption were key requirements.
Weight of the system and foot print were critical design criteria, since the membrane filtration system and RO system would be built on the roof top of the existing Changi Water Reclamation Plant. Also, the plant's power consumption was important to ensure the lowest life-cycle costs for operating the plant. The Sembcorp NEWater Plant will be the second largest wastewater reclamation plant in the world when it produces its full capacity by mid-2010.
