On June 19 - 21, the Singapore International Water Week & Expo was grandly held at Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre. The global water - industry focus shifted to Singapore. Shenzhen Environment & Water Group led Shenzhen Water Technologies to make its first international debut, showcasing water - innovation results and tech strength, and engaging in in - depth exchanges to offer "Shenzhen insights" for the global water sector.
Exhibition Sparks New Vitality
This Water Expo, themed "Innovation - Driven, Smart Integration, Building a Water - centred Future", focuses on water - resource sustainability, digital transformation, and green low - carbon development. It attracted over 2,000 leaders, experts, and practitioners from governments, industry organizations, water companies, and academic institutions, as well as more than 500 international firms like PUB, Xylem, Suez, Huawei, and Ecolab. Ministers from seven countries attended the opening of this notable water - industry event.
Shenzhen Water Technologies' innovative products, such as the intelligent chemical dosing machine, micrometer - level zooplankton smart real - time monitor, and intelligent aeration system, along with its typical cases and intelligent solutions in technological innovation and environmental - watershed fields, shone brightly on this international stage and garnered enthusiastic responses from attending experts.
Vice Minister of Ecology and Environment of the People's Republic of China, Guo Fang, visited the exhibition hall with her delegation. They inquired in detail about the technological products in the environmental water sector. Guo Fang praised the micrometer-level zooplankton smart real-time monitoring instrument for its technological excellence, market potential, and innovation, stating it has a bright future and high demand. She encouraged continued optimization and iterative upgrades of the product.
John Ringham, President of the Global Leading Water Alliance, Suzan Bergmann, CEO of SUEZ, Fang Hengye, Vice President, Academician Qu Jiuhui of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Academician Mark van Loosdrecht, winner of the Lee Kuan Yew Water Prize, Assistant Director of the Hong Kong Drainage Services Department, and technology experts from the Singapore NEA Energy Center were among the water leaders, experts, and visitors who inquired and learned about the intelligent water series products, and interacted on relevant technological products.
William Yeo, PUB's Vice President of Operations, led multiple sessions with Singapore Water Quality Office officials to explain the micrometer - level zooplankton smart real - time monitoring instrument's technical principles and discuss specific technology - output and cooperation - model intentions.
SUEZ CEO Suzan Bergmann showed great interest in our intelligent solutions and production - support systems. Later, SUEZ arranged for its Southeast Asia market team to visit and learn, acknowledging the strength of our intelligent products.
Xylem Co - President Naji Skaf inquired about the intelligent chemical dosing machine's technical principles and reviewed the product manual. Huawei's Singapore head commended Shenzhen Water Technologies' smart plant ideas and applications, proposing joint overseas - market development. GWI also highly praised our innovative intelligent products.
Experts agree that the intelligent chemical dosing machine reduces人工 intervention by 95% - 99%, revolutionizing the traditional dosing method and ensuring water quality. The micrometer - level zooplankton smart real - time monitor increases monitoring frequency by 42 times and detection efficiency by 6 times, enhancing water - quality testing and reducing lab - testing dependency. The intelligent aeration system saves 10% - 15% in aeration and electricity consumption, achieving both water - quality and energy - saving improvements.
Deliberate New Development
As one of the world's most influential water events, the Singapore International Water Week & Expo not only showcases cutting - edge water technologies and products but also offers a key platform for industry exchanges and strategic cooperation.
At a closed - door meeting between Shenzhen Environment & Water Group and PUB, the group's digital - transformation journey was introduced. With examples of applications and specific process scenarios, Shenzhen Water Technologies' use of AI and other next - generation IT was explained. This has strongly supported the group's digital innovation in full - chain operations, round - the - clock monitoring, and all - scenario emergency management.
Following this, both sides had an in - depth discussion on practical matters such as water - quality smart monitoring, less - manned water - treatment plants, data and cyber - security, personnel training, direct potable water, and gaining user trust. They agreed to further boost water - technology cooperation to jointly promote the development of smart water services.
At the "Smart and Digital Solutions Discussion" meeting, Shenzhen Water Technologies General Manager Wang Meifang, along with overseas counterparts like a Singaporean SWAN organization representative and a Scottish Water leader, evaluated seven global smart water - related startups (Ontoto, Clean Groundwater Tech, Aumsat Technologies, Watershed Monitoring, Naturedots, Movements, and TeamSolve) and interacted with them on their technological creativity and smart products.
"Collaborate" for New Models
During the exhibition, Shenzhen Water Technologies, on behalf of Shenzhen Municipal Water Supply and Drainage Association, signed a cooperation MoU with the Singapore Water Association. Based on mutual benefit and common development, both parties will exchange experiences in urban water resource management, water environment management, and water - sector technological innovation.
The signing marks a new stage of cooperation between Shenzhen and Singapore in the water sector. They will jointly explore new models and technologies for water resource management to promote the development of the water industry in both regions.
During the expo, Shenzhen Water Technologies witnessed the strategic cooperation agreement signing between Shenzhen Environment & Water Group and Xylem. This signing signifies the collaboration of these two water - industry leaders and their determination to promote sustainable water - sector development. They will focus on in - depth cooperation in water markets, infrastructure, equipment R&D, and smart water services, jointly setting an example for comprehensive and diversified integration.
Shenzhen Water Technologies' first international debut not only demonstrated its strong ability to accelerate traditional industry upgrading and cultivate new - quality productivity but also contributed "Shenzhen strength" to the global development of smart water services. In the future, the company will continue to empower the water sector with new - quality productivity and drive the innovative development of global smart water services.
