Manila gets clean water facility

Technology provider Eco-System Technology Inc. (ESTI) has officially turned over to a Manila city government the state-of-the-art water treatment technology, which allows for the biological recovery of multiple sources of contaminated water for potable and non-potable use.

Considered to be a first-in-the-world, the Filipino-designed hybrid technology called “Sequence Bio-Reactor (SBR)” was retrofitted in the Paco Estero plant, and is expected to treat waste water from both the estero and the wet market.
