Sustainable Water
Solutions for a
Better Tomorrow
Process engineering, technical knowledge and practical solutions for advanced wastewater treatment, resource recovery and a circular economy.
WATEN is led by a PrEng-registered process engineer with more than 20 years of experience in water and wastewater treatment, infrastructure planning, process optimisation, advanced treatment, water reuse and resource recovery within a circular-economy framework.
What We Do
WATEN applies specialist engineering expertise and technical knowledge through process engineering services, SME-led technical content and practical digital knowledge products.

Our Technical Expertise
WATEN applies process engineering and infrastructure planning expertise across the full water and wastewater treatment lifecycle, from planning and optimisation to advanced treatment, reuse and resource recovery.

Water & Watewater Treatment Plant Process Design & Optimisation
Process design, troubleshooting, and performance optimisation for wastewater treatment works of varying scale and configuration.

Wastewater Treatment Plant Process Audits & Capacity Assessments
Onsite process audits of existing treatment plants to assess condition, capacity, and compliance against design intent.

Wastewater Sludge Management Plans & Beneficiation Strategy
Wastewater treatment sludge management, beneficiation, co-digestion, and resource recovery opportunities.

Wastewater Advanced Treatment, Reuse & Reclamation
Water reuse solutions that recover value from effluent streams, reduce freshwater demand, and support circular water use.

Wasrewater Treatment Infrastructure Master Planning
Long-term regionalisation and capacity master plans that align infrastructure investment with growth and compliance needs.

Water and Wastewater Circular Economy & Resource Recovery
Identification of circular-economy opportunities and development of integrated resource-recovery projects.
Featured Projects
A selection of projects demonstrating WATEN’s application of process engineering, infrastructure planning and circular-economy expertise.

1
Advanced Wastewater Treatment & Reuse Projects
Feasibility study and process design for 20 ML/d and 15 ML/d water reclamation plants to treat municipal wastewater effluent for industrial reuse and open-pit dolomite mine water for potable-system blending.
2
Sludge Management & Beneficiation Plans
Development of sludge management and beneficiation plans for three wastewater treatment plants with varying capacities, treatment processes, disposal, and sludge characteristics,
3
Integrated Waste Management Facility Project
Process concept and feasibility study for an integrated waste management facility, incorporating waste separation, co-digestion, waste-to-energy, and refuse-derived fuel technologies
Why Choose WATEN
WATEN combines professional engineering experience, specialist technical knowledge and practical delivery across consulting, technical communication and knowledge products
A professional engineer-led with experience in practical project delivery
PrEng-led expertise backed by more than 20 years of water and wastewater treatment experience, supporting projects from infrastructure planning and feasibility through process design, optimization and implementation.
Water and Wastewater Beneficiation & Circular-Economy Perspective
Wastewater and waste streams are considered potential resources rather than waste, with opportunities to reuse and reclaim water, beneficiate sludge, recover resources, and improve long-term resource efficiency.
Knowledge Sharing To Solve Technical Problems and Build Technical Capability
Specialist engineering expertise is translated into practical training, SME-led technical content, and digital knowledge products to help organizations solve technical problems, strengthen decision-making, and build long-term capability.

Our
Digital Knowledge Products
Extend your technical knowledge with practical eBooks, guides, templates and tools developed from specialist water and wastewater experience. WATEN’s digital products are designed to support professional learning, technical problem-solving and informed decision-making without requiring a full consulting engagement.
Practical perspectives on water and wastewater treatment, infrastructure planning, optimisation, reuse, resource recovery and the circular water economy
