Through a meticulous process, they take raw sewage and turn it into safe, clean water before discharging it to the environment. But that’s not all that they do. As part of the company’s green and sustainability initiatives, IWK also endeavours to turn waste into wealth in order to supplement its income stream, generate cost savings and ensure that Malaysians are able to enjoy a prosperous, clean and healthy living today and in the future.
For nearly three decades of experience under its belt, the Company operates and maintains close to 7,500 STPs, around 20,000km of sewer lines, as well as, some 1.4 million Individual Septic Tanks nationwide. In 2022, IWK achieved 97.4% compliance with the environmental regulatory standard of effluent discharge.
IWK is collaborating with water operators to produce and supply reclaimed water to industrial areas in the Klang Valley, Melaka and Penang in order to reduce the amount of potable clean water used throughout various stages of manufacturing and production, such as processing, washing, diluting, cooling and more.
On average, IWK produces about 80,000 tonnes per year of biosolids that can be converted for their respective value instead of being disposed of in landfills. Biochar is a charcoal-like substance that can be made from the biosolids recovered from wastewater treatment processes.
