Sembcorp has said its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sembcorp Utilities, has signed three agreements to further explore the expansion of its water business in China, during the Singapore International Water Week's China Business Forum on Wednesday.
Earlier in the week, Sembcorp also signed an agreement with the Xinmin government.
The first Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is between Sembcorp and Tianjin Lingang Industrial Area Construction and Development Co to explore forming a joint venture to build, own and operate a 12,000 cubic metres per day water reclamation plant.
The new facility is expected to reclaim effluent from Sembcorp's existing industrial wastewater treatment plant in Tianjin as well as reservoir into high grade industrial water and demineralised water for supply to industrial customers.
The second MOU is with the Harbin Wan Xing Long Company to explore acquiring a 50,000 cubic metres per day municipal wastewater treatment plant and a 40,000 cubic metres per day water reclamation plant in Heilongjiang Province.
The water reclamation plant will be supplying water to a power plant owned by China Datang Corporation Renewable Power, one of the largest power producers in China.
The third MOU is with Yanjiao National High Tech Industrial Development Area Administration Committee to explore acquiring a 50,000 cubic metres per day municipal wastewater treatment plant and its associated network in the Yanjiao National High Tech Industrial Development Area in Hebei Province.
