KBR completed the functional and detailed design for upgrades to Gippsland Water's Drouin Wastewater Treatment Plant in Victoria, Australia. The plant is being augmented to meet a 2050 design horizon, with a new membrane bioreactor activated sludge mechanical treatment plant.

Lithium-ion batteries are used in many different devices people use every day, including mobile phones, laptops and electric vehicles. Producing high-quality, long-lasting batteries requires lithium salt with a high degree of purity. While the current standard is 99.5% purity,
KBR’S TECHNOLOGY CAN GENERATE LITHIUM THAT’S 99.9% PURE FROM AN IMPURE SOLUTION.
Our technology also makes it possible to recover the water involved in the process, which is important as water is a scarce resource in many parts of the world.
