Doosan Heavy to Build New Sewage Treatment Facility

Kemira produces in excess of 350,000 tons of water treatment chemicals annually at its four manufacturing sites in the United Kingdom: Ellesmere Port, Goole, Bradford and Teesport. These products are used at water treatment facilities to produce drinking water from natural surface waters. They remove particles, color, algae and harmful bacteria from the raw water in order to safely prepare it for the final disinfection. In sewage treatment plants, water chemicals enable the elimination of excess nutrients in order to protect the natural water resources.
