Wastewater Collection & Treatment
Protecting Critical Wastewater Infrastructure
Sewage conveyance and wastewater collection rank among the most important public health responsibilities in every community. Two common issues with this critical infrastructure are microbial induced corrosion and the infiltration/exfiltration of liquids. Left untreated, these environmental issues lead to rapid deterioration of sanitary systems and failures that are costly to repair and disruptive to everyday life.

Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant Cervecería Águila
The wastewater treatment plant at Cervecería Águila in Barranquilla, Colombia, encountered significant leaks in its treatment tank shortly after commissioning. The severity of these leaks was exacerbated by the corrosive nature of the leachates and chemicals present in the brewery's wastewater, threatening the tank’s structural integrity.
GBRA Stein Falls Water Reclamation Facility Expansion
The Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) expanded its Stein Falls Water Reclamation Facility to increase treatment capacity, improve solids management, and modernize chemical and electrical systems.
Pendleton-Clemson Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion
The Town of Pendleton undertook the expansion of the Pendleton-Clemson Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant to increase treatment capacity and improve long-term system reliability for the surrounding service area.
JEA Bio Solids Facility
The JEA Buckman Bio Solids Facility required durable concrete protection for new sludge holding tanks and the overhead structural slab exposed to aggressive wastewater conditions. These structures operate under continuous exposure to hydrogen sulphide and microbial activity that can lead to microbial induced corrosion. The project demanded a long-term solution capable of protecting concrete integrity without reliance on surface applied linings or membranes that require ongoing maintenance.
Saint-Isidore Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade
The Municipality of Saint-Isidore initiated an upgrade to its wastewater treatment facility to replace aging infrastructure and comply with updated environmental standards. The modernization involved the construction of new reinforced concrete structures, including a degritter building, a concrete treatment pond, and a pumping station.
