Egypt wants to improve its performance in wastewater recycling. This is the reason for the agreement with Ecolab. The American provider of water, hygiene and infection control solutions and services will accompany the Egyptian government in the framework of the National Water Supply Project, which aims to mitigate the effects of water stress in the country of the pharaohs.


Ecolab will build 23 new domestic wastewater treatment plants over five years. The water from these plants will be used for irrigation. In Egypt, agriculture consumes between 70 and 80% of water resources.
