Nov. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- BRENTWOOD, Calif., September 6, 2011 - ROPV, the largest performance engineered pressure vessels in the Asia Pacific region; today announced that Hyflux has awarded it the contract to supply its pressure vessel requirements.

Hyflux’s wholly owned subsidiary, Tuaspring Pte Ltd, will supply the PUB with 84 million gallons (318,500 m3/day) of desalinated water a day over a 25-year period. To date it is Hyflux’s largest project by value and is the second largest UF membrane installation after Algeria’s Magdaa Desalination Plant. The Tuas II plant is expected to commence operations by 2013.

“We are happy that we have come to this important milestone. I would like to thank all parties involved, including my staff, for all their hard work. I look forward to the completion of Singapore’s largest seawater desalination plant in two years’ time,” said Ms. Olivia Lum, Hyflux’s Group President & CEO.

“We are very honored by Hyflux's decision to use ROPV pressure vessels for the Tuas II. It is a testament to the product quality that customers expect to receive from ROPV," said Mr. Youqing Li, ROPV President and CEO.

“The Tuaspring Desalination Plant will add 84 million gallons of desalinated water per day to Singapore’s water supply. ROPV is proud to be selected and be a part of Hyflux’s milestone contribution to Singapore,” said Ms. Hattie Wang, ROPV’s Vice President of Global Market.

ROPV will supply Hyflux with 4,860 pressure vessels. This is ROPV’s second major project in Singapore where it supplied Biwater 1,980 pressure vessels for the Sembcorp Changi NEWater plant (SCNP) which was awarded the 2010 GWI Award for Water Reuse Project of the Year.
