Water treatment plant

JAKARTA (JP): The West Java administration is inviting Medco Group to establish a waste water treatment plant to process liquid industrial waste in the greater Bandung area, West Java, said the province's vice governor, H.M.A. Sampurna.

He said in Bandung over the weekend that Medco Group had spent Rp 600 million (US$251,000) on a feasibility study of its plan to set up the plant, which would process waste from the industrial areas of Dayeuhkolot and Cimahi.

Sampurna was quoted by Bisnis Indonesia as saying that construction of the plant would begin later this year. (10)
