Najib El Khouri, the Managing Director of Zero Waste Technology, said:
"We believe the exclusive representative agreement and intended joint venture between Zero Waste and Bluewater Bio will establish a platform in our region for Zero Waste to build upon its core in the solid waste sector. We also expect the agreement will deploy Bluewater Bio's pioneering HYBACS wastewater treatment technology which can help address economically and ecologically important issues relating to the efficient use, more precisely re-use, of water."
Any water treatment project in Saudi Arabia awarded to Zero Waste Technology will be undertaken by their subsidiary office in Saudi Arabia.
Mr. Abdulaziz H. Gabel, Zero Waste Technology KSA commented:
"Homeowners and businesses in Saudi Arabia should brace themselves for higher water bills as the industry attempts to cope with increased demand and shortages of supply of water. Investment in the water industry expected to reach $50bn in the next decade in search for solutions. Experts warn that countries must act to find solutions to the problem as a lack of action could threaten their economic growth."
Daniel Ishag, CEO of Bluewater Bio, commented:
"HYBACS is a wastewater treatment process which can substantially biologically remove the inorganic nutrients nitrogen and phosphorous, making treated wastewater from HYBACS plants well suited to water re-use applications, particularly agricultural and horticultural irrigation. This is of particular relevance in the Middle East, and we are delighted to enter into this agreement with Zero Waste, which itself has successfully deployed pioneering technology to treat solid waste."
