The upgrade and refurbishment of equipment can prolong the working life of a treatment plant. Such an approach is sometimes used to provide a temporary solution while awaiting the decision to construct a new plant.
Refurbishment & Upgrade
Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies has a wealth of refurbishment experience:
- upgrading and modernising equipment and facilities.
- transforming to increase capacity.
- reducing the amount of sludge produced by the treatment process.
- improving efficicency to ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
- automating an existing plant.
- monitoring, refurbishing and changing membranes.
On-Site Refurbishment
VWS can perform on-site refurbishment to eliminate the need to transport the existing equipment, which will provide a significant cost saving in cases where the equipment is difficult to access or is signficantly akward to remove and transport.
Supply of Refurbished Equipment
Purchasing refurbished equipment can provide significant cost savings when compared to purchasing new equipment. For example, VWS can provide a refurbished ram pump for approximately 55% of the cost of a new pump.
