  • Maynilad commissions water reclamation plant, potentially source of NEW WATER in Philippines

About the entity

Maynilad
Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad), the largest private water concessionaire in the Philippines, provides water and wastewater services for the 17 cities and municipalities that comprise the West Zone of the Metropolitan Manila area.

Maynilad Water Services, Inc., the water concessionaire for the West Zone of Metropolitan Manila area, has started initial operations of its newly constructed Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) in Marulas, Valenzuela, which is designed to treat the wastewater generated by some 300,000 customers within nine barangays in Valenzuela City, making it safe for release to the ecosystem.

Maynilad’s Valenzuela Water Reclamation Facility — the company’s 23rd wastewater treatment facility — currently treats around 12 million liters per day (MLD) of wastewater generated by communities around the immediately vicinity of Marulas Creek. Once Maynilad completes the installation of a 27.4-kilometer sewer network in the city by 2024, the plant will be able to collect and treat wastewater of up to 60 MLD, serving barangays Gen. T. De Leon, Karuhatan, Malinta, Marulas, Maysan, Parada, Paso De Blas, and portions of Lingunan and West Canumay.

The Valenzuela Water Reclamation Facility is also among the STPs that Maynilad plans to eventually tap for the production of NEW WATER, or potable supply sourced from used water.

The company is also currently upgrading one wastewater facility in Caloocan, and constructing four new ones in Las Piñas, Bacoor, and Tunasan and Cupang in Muntinlupa. Once completed over the next five years, Maynilad’s total number of wastewater treatment plants will be 27 by year 2027.
