Every year on June 5, World Environment Day is observed with the purpose of encouraging more ecologically friendly behaviours and raising awareness about the importance of environmental conservation. The benefit of environmental conservation is becoming increasingly important as microplastics, tainted air, and harmful radiation levels rise. Batam, with the goal of becoming a green city, is competing for investment with other Southeast Asian nations. The first phase of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) was completed in Batam, and more stages will be built soon. Reservoirs for floating photovoltaic (FPV) will also be installed in Batam to support green energy. Other supporting businesses in Batam include the production of solar panels and other related industries. Aside from that, the administration is also concerned about education. In order to sustain the green energy ecosystem, businesses that use green energy technologies will eventually need to collab with universities and vocational schools. #indvestime #batam #indonesia

Group Unveils Solar-Powered Borehole In Omagwa Asharami Synergy — a subsidiary of the Sahara Group — has launched a groundbreaking solar-powered borehole system in the Omagwa community of Rivers State. The new borehole is equipped with a 1.5-horsepower DC water pump and 1,200 watts of solar panels.... #Africa #CommunitySolar #Environment #Nigeria #SolarAfrica #SolarBorehole #SolarNigeria

River Aswa III draining to River Albert Nile in northwest Uganda is a major river, which flows towards River Nile, joining it between Pakwach and Nwoya. The Aswa River, vital to the ecology and economy of the region, is set to become a beacon of hope with the Latoro Project. This ambitious initiative aims to harness the river's natural flow to generate clean energy, creating an essential resource for electrifying West Nile and Northern Uganda. As the project unfolds, it promises to transform the lives of countless individuals, providing stable electricity that will drive economic growth, enhance education, and improve healthcare services. While larger hydropower projects are often seen as the primary solution for energy generation, small hydropower plants like the one planned for the Aswa River offer robust advantages that complement these larger systems. They are typically more adaptable to local conditions and can be constructed with a smaller footprint, minimizing environmental impact. Their decentralized nature allows for energy production closer to the point of consumption, reducing transmission losses and ensuring a more reliable supply for rural communities.Furthermore, small hydropower plants can foster local economies by creating jobs during both the construction and operational phases. They also encourage community involvement and investment, empowering local populations to take an active role in their energy solutions. By diversifying the energy mix, small plants enhance resilience in the power supply, making communities less vulnerable to energy shortages. As the Latoro Project on the Aswa River progresses, it embodies a forward-thinking approach to sustainable development, illustrating how small-scale energy solutions can significantly contribute to national goals, uplift local livelihoods, and pave the way for a brighter, electrified future. #Smallhydropower #sustainability #EAP #Empoweringcommunities #waterpower #hydrology

Ho Chi Minh City inaugurated the expanded Binh Hung Wastewater Treatment Plant on Friday as part of Phase 2 of the city's water environment improvement project. Wastewater is collected and conveyed through a system of interceptor sewers to the Dong Dieu pumping station. At this station, wastewater undergoes preliminary treatment to remove sand and debris before being pumped through pipelines to the Binh Hung plant for further treatment. The treated water is then discharged into the environment. In addition to the Binh Hung Wastewater Treatment Plant, Ho Chi Minh City has two other plants: Tham Luong - Ben Cat (with a capacity of 131,000 cubic meters) and Binh Hung Hoa (30,000 cubic meters). Currently, the city's total capacity for treating urban domestic wastewater only reaches about 40% of the daily wastewater volume.    #WaterTreatment #Treatment #Wastewater #Asia #Vietnam   This content is jointly prepared by ZWEEC Analytics Pte Ltd and ripple2wave.

#ContainerisedWaterTreatmentUnit One of the interesting Projects I ever worked on as an entrant in the industry were the @Kenya Devolution Support Programme (#KDSP) Containerised Water Treatment Units supply projects in County Government of Kakamega (Ministry of Water, Environment, Natural Resources and Climate Change) that included four such systems in the areas of #Lumino, #Butwehe,#Kambiri #Lugari funded by USAID's Kenya Investment Mechanism 🌀Containerised Water Treatment Units, are a new technology in the country that have the potential of changing the industry that has been previously obsessed with concrete construction of water treatment units that has it's challenges.😌☺️ 🌀One of this good days, when life give me a chance, I will do a #Comprehensive #Comparative #Analysis of their #performance with regards to #Operation and #Maintaince (Cost of operation especially energy efficiency, Output Quality of water and other salient features such as easy of use by O&M team) to the older systems; and give a full report on their Cost-benefit analysis and reccommendations on improvements. Parting shot, "Tech is the tool to accelerate WASH Infrastructure and Service Delivery; and we can only do this by #testing; #adopting and #scaling the best innovation within the market and not jumping for every new thing the market brings."😇🤔 #WaterTechnologies #ContainerisedTreatmentUnit

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif launched a solarization initiative in Balochistan, aiming to convert 28,000 agricultural tube wells to solar power at a cost of 55 billion rupees. This project, funded mostly by the Federal Government, is set to save 90 billion rupees annually and ensure reliable water supply for farmers. Sharif also outlined plans to expand solarization efforts nationwide, targeting one million tube wells to reduce fuel imports by 3.5 billion dollars yearly. Additionally, educational quotas and infrastructure investments underscore ongoing efforts to empower Balochistan's youth and boost provincial development. #BalochistanDevelopment #SolarEnergy #AgriculturalSustainability #PakistanProgress #PrimeMinisterSharif #EnergyEfficiency #Pakistan #Balochistan 

WABAG Wins €78 Million Contract for Wastewater Treatment in Zambia, Expanding its African Footprint Contract is from Lusaka Water Supply and Sanitation Company for the design, build, and operation of two advanced wastewater treatment plants in Zambia.
