Setting new standards in drinking water treatment.

WABAG set a new benchmark in drinking water treatment with the innovative Muttenz Water Treatment Plant (WTP) in Switzerland. The plant is designed to address the pressing issue of micropollutants in groundwater, influenced by Rhine infiltrate and industrial activities. WABAG developed and implemented a cutting-edge process design that includes advanced oxidation, adsorption, and ultrafiltration to ensure the removal of contaminants like chlorobutadiene and bromate, providing safe and high-quality drinking water to the community.

Project Features:

• Scope: Design,  supply, installation, and commissioning of a three-stage groundwater treatment plant.
• Technologies:
  • Advanced Oxidation with the HiPOx system
  • PACOPUR® process for activated carbon adsorption
  • Innovative PAC recycling system
  • Ultrafiltration.
• Impact: Muttenz WTP is a unique facility in Europe, setting new standards for the removal of micropollutants in drinking water, ensuring maximum safety, resource conservation, and the reliable delivery of clean water.
