Clearford Water Systems Inc. (Clearford) has signed a contract to supply an advanced wastewater treatment facility for the new one-million-square-foot YOW1 Warehouse that will be constructed in Ottawa.
Clearford will design and build an advanced membrane bioreactor (MBR) wastewater treatment plant to process all the sewage generated by up to 1,000 workers when the new warehouse project is operational. The site requires its own treatment plant because it is located outside of the sanitary sewer service area for the City of Ottawa. The Clearford M-brane™ plant will achieve the highest level of treatment for environmental protection of local water resources.
The site developer, owner and constructor, Montreal-based Broccolini, selected the Company’s water treatment subsidiary Clearford Koester Canada to provide a full turnkey solution including engineering, design, and installation of a Clearford packaged MBR plant. Installation of the plant is planned by the end of 2018, with commissioning in the spring of 2019.
