OUR
TECHNOLOGY

Leveraging on its more than 20 years of experience with technology development and its extensive inventory of proprietary technologies and over 18 patents, Ecosystem pioneered the Sequence Bio Reactor (SBR) and Sequence Bio-Membrane Reactor (SBMR) technologies, among others, allowing biological recovery of multiple sources of contaminated water for potable and non-potable uses.

 

The high quality of effluent produced is not only fully compliant to the government’s standards but also recommended for us to preserve out natural resources. With these, Ecosystem continues to exceed client expectations as well as expand its services globally.

HISTORY & MILESTONES
1989

Ecosystem Founder Robert Y. So (RYS) introduced Ozone and Ultraviolet technologies for water treatment in the Philippines.

1995

Ecosystem founded, and introduced the Sequencing Batch Reactor technology in the Philippines amidst severe skepticism from the consultants and competitors at the time.

1997

First underground installation of a used water treatment plant in the Philippines — undertaken at the Cebu City Light Garden Condominium in Lahug, possible due to the first generation of Ecosystem’s Sequence Bio Reactor, a proprietary technology that does not emit harmful Hydrogen Sulfide gas.

2002

Non potable reuse of waste water achieved for the first time in the Philippines, enabling De La Salle University to reuse wastewater for its football field care and maintenance.

Successful retrofit of a failed treatment plant in SM Pampanga into a Sequence Bio Reactor, using no additional space while reducing energy consumption by 50%

2004

Philippine Government enacts the Clean Water Act, criminalizing the discharge of untreated wastewater to public drainage, and natural bodies of water.

Using Ecosystem treatment plants, SM Malls started reusing waste water for toilet flushing, grounds keeping, plant care, and cooling towers, a practice that will lead to over 4 million cubic meters of recycled water in 2016 alone.

2007

Completed and exceeded over 100 design and build projects.

After serving over a decade of severe skepticism and ridicule towards the Sequencing Batch Reactor technology, consultants start prescribing the technology for projects, and the competitors all suddenly claim to have expertise on the design and construction of SBR treatment plants

2008

RYS was cited as one of nine “Most Inspiring Biotech Entrepreneurs” and was conferred this biotech award by the GoNegosyo organization for pioneering the use of biotechnology in used water treatment and for Ecosystem’s contribution in the development of biotechnology in the Philippines.

2009

Completed the design and installation of the first Membrane Bio Reactor treatment facility in the Philippines; with over 500 analytical instrumentation integrated with a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system it was at this time the most advanced used water treatment plant in the Philippines.

2010

Joined the ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation in partnership in its Kapit Bisig Para sa Ilog Pasig Program to rehabilitate the Pasig River, as water technology consultant for the program. He remains a member of the Board of Advisers of the program, Bantay Kalikasan.

2013

Founder RYS is awarded the patent for Method of Harvesting & Treatment of Contaminated Floodwater.

2015

Honored by Asia CEO Awards as Technology Company of the Year.

Conferred the certificate for ISO 9000:2001 for Quality Management.

Exceeded 500 complete design and build projects

2016

Turned over a donation of a 3rd Generation Sequence Bio Reactor to the City of Manila in cooperation with the ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation. The 3rd Gen SBR is the Estero de Paco Water Reclamation Facility located by the Paco Public Market.

Engr. So donated a 250 cu. m/day capacity Water Reclamation Facility (featuring a 3rd generation SBR) located along Estero de Paco, to the City of Manila, in support of the efforts to rehabilitate the Pasig River, involving not only Kapit Bisig Para sa Ilog Pasig, but also the Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission.

2016

Launched joint venture with Metropac Water Investments, Inc., joining the Metro Pacific Investments Corp. family towards making the Philippines a center of excellence in water technology and sharing the technology to the ASEAN region.

2017

Completion of the Combined Water Recovery Facility and Desalination Plant for the Okada Manila resort along Manila Bay. Treating a total of 10 million liters of water every day, from waste water from operations, as well as sea water from Manila Bay, this facility is now the most advanced water treatment technology deployed in the Philippines.
