# Global Water & Energy (GWE)

> Global Water & Energy designs and builds industrial water and wastewater
> treatment plants, water reuse systems, anaerobic digestion of organic solids
> and waste-to-energy installations. Founded in 1991 and headquartered in
> Bruges, Belgium, GWE is part of the Ekopak group and operates worldwide.

GWE's work is organised around three pillars:

- **IWWT** — industrial water and wastewater treatment: removing organic load,
  solids, nutrients and odour from process water so it meets discharge limits.
- **WtE** — waste-to-energy: capturing biogas from anaerobic treatment and
  organic solids, then valorising it as green energy, heat or grid gas.
- **Water Reuse** — reclaiming treated effluent to a quality that allows it to
  be returned to the production process instead of discharged.
