Congalsa has awarded Espina & Delfín the contract to design, build, and commission its new industrial wastewater treatment plant (EDARI). The facility will eventually have the capacity to treat up to 1,000 cubic meters of water per day and will optimize the treatment of wastewater from the Congalsa complex in A Pobra do Caramiñal. The goal of the project is to provide a reliable, scalable, and operable facility, minimizing disruptions to production and prioritizing safety during construction and commissioning.
With this new EDARI, Congalsa is strengthening its industrial sustainability roadmap, making progress toward more efficient and robust water management. At the same time, the company continues to develop expansion plans for its complex to support the growth of its operations.
In the words of Congalsa President Luis Miguel Simarro, “With this new treatment plant, we are reinforcing our commitment to sustainability. It will optimize wastewater treatment in line with the increase in production capacity in recent years and promote more efficient and environmentally friendly processes. In this way, we are moving toward a model of responsible industrial growth.”
For its part, Espina & Delfín is an industry leader in the collection, treatment, purification, and wastewater treatment of industrial wastewater. The Santiago-based company offers customized water treatment solutions for all types of industries and has its own engineering department. Óscar Rodríguez, co-manager of Espina & Delfín: “We are proud to collaborate with Congalsa on a landmark industrial project in Galicia. Our team has extensive experience in the design, construction, and management of industrial wastewater treatment plants across various sectors, including the dairy, meat, metal, and canning industries, among others.
