Our engineering and design team works with customers to provide various retrofit and upgrade options – from simple equipment replacements to full scale upgrades to meet increased capacity requirements, increased water quality requirements or changes to raw water quality.
For example, AWC has experience upgrading older clarifier basins to dissolved air flotation (DAF) technology. These upgraded plants can achieve significantly higher processing capacity within the same space, without the need for plant expansion or expensive civil works. This is because DAF requires a smaller footprint compared to other treatment methods for the same volume of water being treated.
Other examples of retrofit and upgrade work includes the addition of pre- or post-treatment processes, controls systems upgrades, additions of modular trains, plant refurbishments and anything in between.
