BAE Systems‘ Australian subsidiary has chosen Pittsburgh-based Evoqua Water Technologies to design and produce seawater electrochlorination technology for Australia’s warships.
Evoqua said Thursday it expects to deliver Chloropac systems to BAE during the next six years for installation onboard eight ANZAC-class frigates of the Australian navy.
The system will work to prevent marine growth in the ships’ seawater cooling systems, according to Evoqua.
The company noted it has provided more than 2,500 Chloropac units to customers worldwide.
Warrendale, Pennsylvania-based Evoqua produces activated carbon, aeration and mixing, anaerobic digestion, biological and biosolid treatment, clarification and separation, conventional filtration, dewatering, electromechanical and odor control technologies.
