Field Notes - Ingham's Murarrie Advanced Water Treatment Plant
02 June 2015 / News
During the May General Meeting SAI Platform Australia members were able to view Ingham's Murarrie processing facility which has been using water from its advanced water treatment plant since April 2009. Inghams’ groundbreaking application of advanced water treatment technology has reduced reliance on mains water supply by 70% and decoupled company growth from water scarcity.
The AWTP uses a combination of physical, biological and chemical processes to treat the water, including biological nutrient removal, membrane separation techniques, ultraviolet radiation and chlorination. These processes provide a multi-barrier approach for the removal of microorganisms and comply with the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines.
