SOCAMEX is a water engineering company that belongs to the Urbaser Group, a dependent of ACS, which is their brand that specializes in water. SOCAMEX works both with public and private clients, offering their services in the field of engineering and water treatment, performing design, construction, maintenance and operation of treatment plants and water treatment, water treatment facilities, water treatment technical assistance to different Companies, Municipalities and Communities.

 

SOCAMEX operates services associated with all aspects of the “Water Cycle”:

  • Treatment of drinking water and treatment of urban and/or industrial wastewater
  • Comprehensive water management.
  • Investment plans.
  • Drainage networks.
  • Networks for drawing off, conveying and distributing drinking water.
  • Desalination and water regeneration plants.
  • Commercial management of water service users.
  • Management of sludge from water treatment plants.
  • Operating and maintenance of treatment plants.
  • Analytical water control.
  • Water regeneration.
  • Developing R&D Projects.

SOCAMEX has experience on design, building, start-up and operation and maintenance of leachate treatment plants, and has recently carried out the building and start-up of a 325 m3/d leachate treatment plant in Portugal.

SOCAMEX will build up and assemble the leachate treatment plant in A Coruña, based on its previous knowledge and “know-how”.

SMART-Plant scales-up in real environment eco-innovative and energy-efficient solutions to renovate existing wastewater treatment plants and close the circular value chain by applying low-carbon techniques to recover materials that are otherwise lost.

Seven plus two (7+2) pilot systems were optimized for more than two years in real environment in five municipal water treatment plants, including also two post-processing facilities. The systems were automatized with the aim of optimizing wastewater treatment, resource recovery, energy-efficiency and reduction of greenhouse emissions. A comprehensive SMART portfolio comprising biopolymers, cellulose, fertilizers and intermediates were recovered and processed up to the final commercializable end-products.

Dynamic modeling and superstructure framework for decision support was developed and validated to identify the optimum SMART-Plant system integration options for recovered resources and technologies.

The integration of resource recovery assets to system wide asset management programs were evaluated in each site following the resource recovery paradigm for the wastewater treatment plant of the future, enabled through SMART-Plant solutions. The project proved the feasibility of circular management of urban wastewater and environmental sustainability of the systems, through Life Cycle Assessment and Life Cycle Costing approaches as well as the global benefit of the scaled-up water solutions.

Global market deployment was achieved as right fit solution for water utilities and relevant industrial stakeholders, considering the strategic implications of the resource recovery paradigm in case of both public and private water management. New public-private partnership models were also explored connecting the water sector to the chemical industry and its downstream segments such as the construction and agricultural sector, thus generating new opportunities for funding and potential public-private competition.
