LG Water Solutions, part of LG Chem and manufacturer of the full line of high-efficiency NanoH2O reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, announced that it has been chosen by Sohar SWRO Company LLC to supply its high rejection NanoH2O seawater RO membranes to the Sohar desalination plant in Oman.
The Sohar desalination plant will produce 250 million liters of water per day and serve approximately 800,000 local Oman residents. The plant was designed by Valoriza Agua, a Spanish water technology company with a portfolio of more than 100 water treatment plants throughout Spain, Portugal, Algeria, Tunisia, the Middle East, Brazil, Australia and Chile.
"This is a significant project for LG Chem and it is a true testament to the hard work and effort of our sales and operations teams to deliver the highest quality membrane products worldwide," said Chul Nam, vice president of LG Chem.
Since LG Chem's acquisition of Los Angeles-based NanoH2O in May 2014, the company's product portfolio has expanded to include high rejection brackish water RO (BWRO) membranes, anti-fouling BWRO and residential RO membranes. LG Water Solutions is a business unit of LG Chem and has approximately 20 sales offices worldwide and almost 1,000 installations across the globe.
