LUND, Sweden, Dec. 19, 2019

The order comprises Alfa Laval decanters to be used for dewatering sludge at the wastewater treatment plants. The order also includes service agreements

"We have a broad range of reliable and efficient products for wastewater treatment. Efficient treatment concentrates the sludge and makes it usable as fertilizer - and it also results in higher quantities of clean water, which is good for the environment," says Nish Patel, President of the Food & Water Division.

Did you know that… that according to the UN World Water Development Report, on average, high-income countries treat about 70% of the municipal and industrial wastewater they generate - but in low-income countries, only 8% undergoes treatment of any kind?
