What industries do Water Engineers Australia service?
We provide water treatment solutions for a wide range of industries, including municipal water authorities, mining, agriculture, food and beverage processing, manufacturing, healthcare, commercial facilities, and wastewater treatment plants.
The Oximax range includes advanced water treatment systems such as Oximax HyperOx™ Advanced Oxidation, Oximax Chlorine Dioxide™, and Oximax Electrochlorination™, each designed to address specific water treatment and disinfection challenges.
Our experienced engineers assess your water quality, treatment objectives, operational requirements, and compliance obligations to recommend the most effective and cost-efficient solution.
Electrochlorination is a process that generates sodium hypochlorite (chlorine) on-site using salt, water, and electricity. It eliminates the need to transport and store hazardous chlorine chemicals while providing effective water disinfection.
Chlorine Dioxide is a powerful disinfectant that effectively controls bacteria, viruses, Legionella, biofilm, taste, and odour issues while producing fewer harmful by-products than traditional chlorine treatments.
Advanced Oxidation Technology uses highly reactive oxidants to break down contaminants, remove organic compounds, improve water quality, and enhance disinfection performance in challenging water treatment applications.
