SINGAPORE – PWN Technologies and the PUB held a 2 day workshop on 20 and 21 January in Singapore to discuss cooperation. PWN Technologies is the business structure of the Water Supply Company North Holland that specializes in advanced water treatment solution designs and engineering for more than 90 years.

PUB has for some time recognised that they share many things in common with PWN, particularly on the application of advanced water technology. This workshop was designed to bring technologists and water treatment plant directors from both sides together to explore similar research, project and planning needs.

In the workshop a wide variety of interesting short presentations addressing recent technology achievements and water treatment challenges were presented. Two main areas of cooperation were indentified; membrane filtration and advanced oxidation. In the coming months both companies will work further on developing a specific frame work for cooperation.
