Rejected petition: Reopen Thames Gateway Water Treatment Works a desalination plant
Rejected on
ACCIONA Spain.
The company leads the water treatment sector through its design, construction and operation of drinking water treatment plants, waste water treatment plants, reverse osmosis desalination plants and tertiary treatments for water reuse, and has reinforced its focus on services.
If we could follow Spain’s example of innovation, why have Thames water neglected our Treatment Works that the Duke of Edinburgh opened at a huge cost!
This is so important to our country which is devastated by drought.
