Manila Water Infratech Solutions (MWIS), a subsidiary of Manila Water which provides products and services for water and wastewater projects, is now piloting a new technology designed to provide effective wastewater treatment for small and medium setting.

Dubbed as I-TECH Packaged STP (Sewage Treatment Plant), the new technology is designed to meet the growing demand for modern infrastructure. This compact and robust sewage treatment plant integrates cutting-edge membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology into a user-friendly packaged system.

The equipment uses advanced MBR technology which can effectively filter contaminants and pathogens including nitrate and phosphate to meet stringent water quality standards, particularly the latest effluent standards set by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. The treated wastewater is also suitable for water reuse, helping reduce environmental impact and improving sustainability.

With a daily processing capacity of 10 cubic meters, this can accommodate wastewater requirements for small to medium-sized communities, industrial facilities, or remote locations. Since it is compact, it requires low maintenance and only allows easy, plug-and-play installation especially designed for confined spaces.

“We continue to explore new methods and create innovative solutions with the goal of delivering lasting impact for the communities we serve, as well as to care for the environment where we get our resources.” says Jose Paulo Serias, General Manager of Manila Water Infratech Solutions.

MWIS also provides consultancy, engineering and design, procurement and supply of materials, equipment and technology, and construction management services for water and wastewater projects.
