Resourcing the
World With more than 350 different technologies to boast, Veolia is replicating its global success in Asia courtesy of a flexibility and legacy that is now renowned within the industry Writer: Matthew Staff | Project Manager: Matt Cole-Wilkin eolia’s influence in Asia is thriving off the back of its global leadership position in the resource management domain, and is looking to translate this status into even more concerted solutions combating some of the most pressing water challenges in the world. With a long legacy in environmental sustainability - 160 years to be exact the wider Group has etched its name into the sector’s upper echelons over the decades virtue of its 350 different technologies, unparalleled aftersales capabilities, its operation and maintenance support, and of course its geographical reach. Subsequently reputed as one of the world’s leading providers of water treatment solutions, Veolia’s influence in Asia specifically has evolved over the past 30 years to demonstrate this prowess as extensively as possible. “One of our key success factors lies in the flexibility of our solutions, as Veolia’s portfolio can be applied
across various markets in the region,” Carlo Patteri, Business Development Director, Projects, South East Asia Industrial, Veolia Water Technologies, emphasises to this end. “This flexibility has enabled manufacturers from various vertical markets to enjoy the advantages of Veolia’s advanced water and wastewater technologies.” In Asia, much as in the rest of the world, Veolia provides its clients with the full scope of water technologies capable of treating process water and tackling wastewater challenges, as well as business monitoring tools to conduct water audits. Patteri picks up: “Some of these solutions have very specific applications while others fit a broad range of markets. For instance, the Whittier Filtration and Separations product range is a series of heavy-duty equipment designed to meet the stringent standards of the hydrocarbon and chemical processing industries. On the other hand, our well-known Biothane Anaerobic Technologies and

By aligning the organisation, Veolia can then be more agile, more integrated, and more efficient.” Agility of course lends itself not just to footprint growth and sector diversification, but also to industry trend responsiveness. And one such trend monitored in recent times has been the droughts experienced in Malaysia, where companies are looking to react by investing in water recycling and reuse technologies; the latter especially on the rise. “Similarly, in Singapore, local authorities have imposed a 30 percent increase on water prices that will kick in by 2018, and this will make water recycling technologies more economically attractive to manufacturers operating in the city,” Patteri details. “Anaerobic digestion solutions are also gaining popularity as companies seek to recover nutrients from their wastewater and produce renewable energy at the same time.”

Ville Apparatenbouw, a family company since 1955, is working with Veolia/Biothane since 2011. In 2011 the first prototype of the new compact Biobed advanced settler was made. This new design requires less construction material (is available in 304L/1:4307 – 316L/1:4404 – Duplex/1:4462) and fits round and square tanks. It has been designed to fit in a 20ft or 40ft sea container to limit transport costs. Since 2012, we have supplied this new type of settler to various locations of Veolia all over the world.

With water scarcity threats becoming prominent in Asia-Pacific, there is an opportunity for Veolia as manufacturers will be more inclined to consider moving towards water conservation and adoption of reuse technologies, such as water harvesting and recycling to improve their water footprint. Patteri adds: “As we standardise our solutions to ensure that our clients can consistently achieve high performance anywhere in the world, we hope the process will help our key accounts like Danone as the client continues to expand their operations in new markets. “Veolia hopes to penetrate new markets as well, and we look forward

Patteri concludes: “In the next five years, Veolia hopes to continue to contribute to a world in transformation. Already today, 700 million people in 43 countries live in water scarce regions, and it is expected that 1.8 billion people will be living in regions with absolute water scarcity by 2025. “We know water, and this has enabled Veolia to build its expertise over the years to cover the full range of the water cycle, which is a key differentiator that will address the above challenges and set us apart from our competitors in the future.”
