Veolia – China (Shanghai)
“Weda’s robots helped us maintain peak performance in our recycling intake channels.”
— Site Supervisor, Veolia Shanghai
This Veolia facility in Shanghai manages water recycling for urban and industrial reuse, handling high sediment loads from diverse waste streams. Urban wastewater recycling demands sophisticated handling of mixed contaminants, fluctuating flow rates, and sediment accumulation in intake and buffer tanks. Manual desilting is difficult and often inefficient. The facility integrates robotic dredging solutions to maintain optimal throughput, reduce downtime, and minimize environmental impact. It exemplifies Veolia’s global commitment to sustainability, innovation, and scalable water reuse technologies in mega-city environments like Shanghai.
The Challenge
Sediment build-up in intake channels was leading to flow restrictions, pump wear, and rising maintenance costs. Previous methods involved periodic shutdowns and manual excavation.
The Weda Solution
The Weda YT-800 was selected for its high suction capacity and maneuverability in shallow and sediment-heavy channels. The team uses it regularly without pausing plant operations.
