Singapore Builds First Central Effluent Treatment Plant in Dhaka
SINGAPORE, Jun 28, 2012 - (ACN Newswire) - Singapore company Flagship Ecosystems Investment Private Limited (FESI) together with its local Bangladeshi partner established the first Centralised Effluent Treatment Plant in Bangladesh on a 30-year Build-Own-Operate arrangement with BEPZA(the free trade zone authority in Bangladesh). It will receive effluent from all generating industries in Savar DEPZ (Dhaka Economic Processing Zone) at an approved service tariff rate and with guaranteed effluent volumes. The total investment of the project was SGD10 million.
The CETP started operations on 1 February 2012 treating an estimated 15,000m3/day of effluent to serve the collective needs of the more than 44 companies in the Old Zone of Savar DEPZ. The CETP will expand its capacity to 43,000m3/day within the next year to receive effluent from the 55 companies in the New Zone of Savar DEPZ. The effluent is treated to meet Bangladeshi DOE(Department of Environment) Regulations and discharged into the inland waterway. At present BEPZA has no plan to re-cycle the water.
The CETP employs a newly developed Bio-Electric Process to treat the effluent. The first of its kind in Bangladesh and a first in the world to utilize a Bio-Electric treatment profile on a co-mingled industrial wastewater stream. The Plant possesses the best and latest combinations of technology and equipment provided and manufactured by Flagship Ecosystems.
Flagship Ecosytems has installed and commissioned a fair number of its in-house developed Trident ECR Effluent Treatment Units in textile factories.
Announcing this in conjunction with the Singapore International Water Week 2012, the global platform for the sharing and co-creation of water solutions, Mr Vernon Khoo, Chairman of FESI said, "Being eco-responsible is not the purview and strength exclusive to companies from developed nations. We make it possible for our customers in emerging nations to be partners of multi-national corporations. For export orientated textile manufacturers in Bangladesh, environmental compliance is a key factor in potential clients selecting them as partners. With our proprietary systems such as the Trident ECR series and Staged Contaminant Removal (SCR) Solutions, they can be sure of meeting environmental compliance and their customers' expectations."
The Singapore International Water Week will take place at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre from 1-5 July 2012. The theme is 'Water Solutions for Liveable and Sustainable Cities'.
