Sembcorp at Wilton UK Makes Further Environmental Investment

Pollution and Process Monitoring (UK) is pleased to announce that SembCorp - the present owner of the Wilton International site located in the UK region of Teesside, has committed to further investment in our
Protoc TOC analysers.
Pollution and Process Monitoring have supported the site’s environmental
monitoring program since 1992 supplying numerous Protoc TOC analysers monitoring key site drains and effluent discharge locations. In recent years much of the land has been let to other petrochemical companies which include Dupont SA, Dow Chemicals, Unicema, Huntsman, Air Products and Invista. Low strength effluents from some of these sites in addition to SembCorp’s own surface and process water (which may include waste cooling water, discharges from a commercial laboratory and potentially fire fighting water) are managed by the SembUtilities
division. The necessity to monitor and therefore manage these process effluent streams is fundamentally important in maintaining a perfectly compliant record for site discharges to the River Tees. The parameter has proved to be a very useful determinant, capable of detecting
all forms of organic compounds contained within wastewater. The technique also provides a fast speed of response, from 3 minutes enabling the site to actively manage effluent in realtime to stay compliant with stringent environmental legislation.
