Mr. Andrew Benedek reports
DEPARTMENT OF NATIONAL DEFENCE SELECTS ZENON TECHNOLOGY
Zenon Environmental has been chosen to design, develop and manufacture a
relocatable waste water treatment plant (WWTP) for Canada's Department of
National Defence (DND). This will complement DND's existing line of mobile
water treatment products manufactured by Zenon.
Canada's armed forces are revered worldwide as a leader in the provision of
emergency response water treatment and have been doing so with Zenon's
ADROWPU and Mini-ROWPU portable water treatment systems. This technology
was recently used in Kandahar, Afghanistan, where Canada's troops also
provided superior quality drinking water for other allied forces. For
future applications, the Canadian forces will again lead the way, this time
in the treatment of waste water in temporary camp locations. Zenon's
ZenoGem system allows the military to maintain a totally environmentally
friendly site for waste water treatment, no matter where they are located.
The ZenoGem uses Zenon's patented ZeeWeed membranes in combination with a
bioreactor to produce a higher quality effluent than conventional waste
water treatment. This allows for safe discharge into any environment,
meeting all applicable Canadian, United Kingdom, United States or other
relevant international standards. The treated effluent can also be reused
for non-potable purposes if required.
