Canadian Oil Refinery Wins Industrial Water Project Award

A Canadian site, Federated Co-Operatives Limited's Co-op Refinery Reusing 100 Percent Of Water With GE's Wastewater Treatment Technology Honored As Industrial Water Project Of The Year at GWS.

For the most impressive technical or environmental achievement in the field of industrial water, is the Co-op Refinery Complex, a 2MGD wastewater reuse plant run by Federated Co-operatives Limited. It involves low- and high-pressure membranes from GE to recycle wastewater for steam production, and GE also supplies the site with specialty chemicals and monitoring solutions. The complex became the first refinery in North America to treat 100 percent of its wastewater on site and then recycle the treated effluent for steam production, according to GE.

"We are honored that our Co-op Refinery Complex was named Industrial Water Project of the Year. Water is a precious resource, and our wastewater improvement project allows us to be efficient and sustainable by recovering every drop of water—2 million gallons of wastewater daily. With GE's technology, we now recycle all of our wastewater in a socially responsible and environmentally sound way to conserve water for Regina and the entire province of Saskatchewan," said Gil Le Dressay, vice president, refinery operations for Federated Co-Operatives Limited.
