6 THE NEWS Water & Wastewater Asia unveils new logo, revamps website WATER & WASTEWATER ASIA, the trade professional’s go-to for expert sources of industry information, recently launched its new corporate brand identity, redesigned logo, and website. These changes come at a time when the company is evolving and diversifying its service offerings to the industry. Designed to work effortlessly across digital and physical channels, the new logo brings forth the image of waves moving across the water’s surface, reflecting the water and wastewater industry’s dynamism and constant change. To date, Water & Wastewater Asia’s logo has been primarily blue and white – the new logo incorporates blue colour gradients, transitioning from dark to light blue, and signifying movement and change. The newly-redesigned website allows for ease of navigation, with a layout structured to provide a seamless user experience. A new “Virtual Exhibition” page has also been added, to cater to the increasingly digital landscape that trade shows and exhibitions now need to navigate. With this new addition, Water & Wastewater Asia displays how it is primed to bring industry professionals everything they need to stay at the forefront of the industry’s innovations. The changeover to the new brand design is expected to be completed by the end of 2020. Visit Water & Wastewater Asia’s website (https://waterwastewaterasia.com) for daily industry news and updates! DuPont’s OxyMem wins “Breakthrough Technology Company of the Year” at Global Water Summit OXYMEM, a recent acquisition by DuPont, was recently named the “Breakthrough Technology Company of the Year” by the Global Water Awards for its innovative Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor (MABR) technology for the treatment and purification of municipal and industrial wastewater. Named one of the most impressive commercial breakthroughs into the global water technology market in 2019, OxyMem’s drop-in MABR modules intensify the biological process on existing wastewater treatment plants, increasing treatment capacity with minimal energy consumption. OxyMem, a recent acquisition by DuPont, won the “Breakthrough Technology Company of the Year” by the Global Water Awards. Photo credit: Global Water Awards’ website Rather than expanding existing wastewater treatment plants, MABR offers a cost-effective way to retrofit and upgrade activated sludge plants to meet tightening effluent standards and to cater for population growth. Once in place, MABR delivers oxygen to the established biofilm via millions of gas permeable membrane fibres; a mechanism capable of using up to 75% less energy than traditional bubble aeration. In older plants, OxyMem’s MABR may also improve sludge settlement and generate less waste biosolids, reducing the cost and effort of removal from site.
