Description of the CWTC

Wastewater Discharge

Effluent discharge has to meet the regulatory standards before it is discharged to the public sewers. Multiple processes are employed inside the CWTC to treat all liquid wastes to ensure a safe waste management system. Monitoring of pH, temperature and flow rate coupled with laboratory sample analysis of each batch of wastewater prior to discharge are conducted to facilitate immediate warning on any significant change detected in the composition of the effluent. Moreover the storage and process areas are bunded for secondary containment of accidental spillages.
