Nereda technology extends sewage treatment capacity to 2.4 million people
Our Nereda water technology is showing the way forward for countries to effectively and efficiently treat the wastewater of growing populations. We are implementing our award-winning wastewater treatment technology Nereda at a huge plant near Dublin where 40% of Ireland’s wastewater is treated. Our work extends the capacity of the plant by a third to 2.4 million population equivalent. The programme includes both retrofit and new installations and has been organised so that operations at this vital facility can continue throughout the upgrade. Read more on our website.

Nereda provides more capacity with a small physical footprint. It is a green and sustainable technology requiring no chemicals and less energy. The quality of the treatment process conforms to EU regulations, reducing the release of harmful nutrients into the environment.

“We are proud to be upgrading Ireland’s biggest wastewater treatment plant in a sustainable manner. We have increased capacity to match Dublin’s population growth while meeting nutrient regulations and optimising assets for generations to come.”
