Water Filtration

With more than 140 treatment plants, we treat discharges from over 29 million residents. We specialize in the design, construction, and operation and maintenance of water treatment and purification facilities.

For almost 50 years, we’ve offered solutions for over 400 projects, both in industrial facilities and in urban environments, in order to ensure the drinking water supply, to protect the environment, and to prevent pollution. We design our treatment plants with the aim of fulfilling their mission at the lowest cost for the facilities’ entire Lifecycle, along with a commitment to the environment.

Wastewater purification involves a set of processes and technologies designed to eliminate polluting compounds found in water that may be more or less toxic both to human health and the water’s target ecosystems once purified. All of these processes take place at WWTPs.
