(AES) and AES ARABIA have developed a global reputation as high quality solutions providers for a diversified range of water treatment applications. This included the execution of prestigious projects with highly demanding clients ranging from zero liquid discharge utilizing Ultra High Lime process and Brine Concentration, Produced Water Treatment for re-injection in oil field applications, treatment of highly brackish water with high H2S content and high fouling potential, steel mill oily water reclamation and reuse, Ultra Pure water, Leachate wastewater treatment, and high efficiency seawater desalination as well as containerized and mobile units for remote areas.

AES has also consistently consolidated its position and market share in the booming Oil & Gas sector in the Middle East and established strong presence in more Gulf and MENA markets such as Sudan, Abu Dhabi, Oman and Iraq.

AES subsidiary, American Water Chemicals (AWC), has designed membrane and MSF antiscalants that allowed the complete elimination of sulphuric acid dosing thereby reducing hazardous chemical handling and saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual operating costs.

Our advanced technology has guaranteed the control of Silica scaling at prohibitive saturation levels.

AWC RO membrane cleaning chemicals have also allowed for effective removal of stubborn foulants.

AWC’s advanced laboratory testing offers complete scale and foulant analysis in addition to modelling proprietary software used to recommend optimal solutions to membrane problems in aggressive waters.
