Wastewater company Parkson doubles capacity at Mexico facility

30 July 2010

Wastewater treatment company Parkson has doubled the capacity of its wastewater treatment facility near Mexico City.

Earlier this year, the company installed 304 HiOx UltraFlex aeration panels at a wastewater treatment facility in Hidalgo, Mexico.

The existing wastewater plant was no longer able to produce the required quantity of water needed for these industrial applications, the company said.

The new installation has more than doubled the plant’s delivery after it was unable to produce the volume required to cool the thermo-electrical towers, which it was limited to after originally being designed to deliver more than double the amount of treated water.

The cleaned water is subsequently used by a regional power generation station as well as a local oil refinery.

Parkson’s product manager for HiOx, Vipin Lillaney, said, ‘In addition to more than doubling the plant’s capacity, the HiOx UltraFlex system has resulted in monthly savings between $15,000 and $40,000.’

In addition to the 46 per cent reduction in energy use via reduced power consumption coupled and greater throughput, the plant has also experienced greater treatment efficacy, the company said.
