Amiad provides water filtration solutions to Singapore's third
desalination plant
Recently-launched Tuas Desalination Plant incorporates Amiad's
ultra-filtration and reverse osmosis membrane protection
solutions
Amiad (AIM: AFS), a leading global producer of water treatment
and filtration solutions, announces that it provided its water
filtration solutions for the Tuas Desalination Plant in Singapore,
which was launched on 28 June 2018 and is the country's third
desalination plant. Amiad was appointed by HSL Constructor Pte Ltd,
the project's construction contractor, and Tedagua Singapore Pte
Ltd, which designed the plant, through a competitive bid process to
supply ultra-filtration (UF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane
protection solutions.
Singapore's National Water Agency, PUB, has identified seawater
desalination as a solution to the country's increasing water
demand, which is expected to double by 2060. The Tuas Desalination
Plant, which is owned and operated by PUB, can produce 136,000m(3)
(30 mgd) of water per day - equivalent to 54 Olympic-size swimming
pools - through the treatment of seawater by more than 14,000 RO
membranes. It is the first desalination plant in Singapore to use
advanced pre-treatment technology, a combination of dissolved
air-floatation and ultra-filtration.
Amiad has provided a total of 224 filters for the Tuas
Desalination Plant consisting of 22 units of 4 x 10" Super Galaxy
(55 micron) filters for UF membrane protection and 34 units of 4 x
10" Super Galaxy (20 micron) filters for RO membrane protection.
These filters treat 13,900m(3) of water per hour for UF membrane
protection and 12,800m(3) per hour for RO membrane protection.
Dori Ivzori, Chief Executive Officer of Amiad, said: "We are
delighted to have been a part of this project to provide Singapore
with its third desalination plant. It is vital that we, as a
society, use all of the means at our disposal to meet the
increasing demand for fresh water and we congratulate the Singapore
government on their success in driving the development of
desalination in the country. We thank HSL and Tedagua for choosing
Amiad for this important project and we hope to continue to work
together on similar projects going forward."
Charles Quek, CEO of HSL Constructor Pre Ltd, added: "HSL is
privileged to be part of this historic project to build a compact
30 mgd desalination plant. We are thankful to all partners for this
special journey, and the collective desire and drive to deliver
with distinction."
