SembCorp extended its wastewater treatment business to Caofeidian Chemical Industrial Park in Hebei province, China.

SembCorp will be developing a new industrial wastewater treatment plant in the Caofeidian Chemical Industrial Park in Hebei province, China. 

Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sembcorp (China) Holding Co, the company has entered into an agreement to set up an 80-20 joint venture with Tangshan Caofeidian Yongtai Industry Co, a wholly-owned entity of the Caofeidian Industrial Zone Administrative Committee. The joint venture company, Sembcorp Caofeidian Water Co, will build, own and operate an industrial wastewater treatment plant to serve customers in the chemical industrial park. Targeted to begin operations in late 2015, this wastewater treatment facility will have an initial capacity of 10,000 cubic metres per day and have advanced capabilities to treat high concentration industrial wastewater and high oil content industrial wastewater. 

The Caofeidian Chemical Industrial Park is a petrochemical and coal-to-chemicals industrial park that is part of an industrial zone enjoying strong support from the central government. Strategically located along the coast of Hebei province, it is also at the centre of the Bohai Bay Economic Rim, widely considered one of China’s three centres of economic growth alongside the Pearl River and Yangtze River Deltas. The chemical industrial park has close proximity to Tangshan City, which is rich in coal and oil, as well as to a deep water port for the transport of crude oil, coal, iron ore and bulk cargo.
