Metito Case Study: Water & Wastewater Treatment Plants for Asam-Asam Steam Power Plant – Kalimantan-Indonesia
The Indonesian government awarded an international consortium
The project was truly unique and undeniably challenging for many reasons including: The salinity of the water source/the Asam River during the dry season, with the location being very close to the sea. This proximity causes a wide range of hourly changes in the quality of the raw water with the total dissolved solids varying from 30 to 27,000 mg/l, and the suspended solids varying from 5 to 690 mg/l.
