Astander will install a portable industrial wastewater treatment unit and a reverse osmosis system under the ASTANDER MA project in Santander. The yard says the systems are intended to treat and reuse water from hull cleaning and maintenance, and to remove heavy metals, hydrocarbons and biocides before discharge.
Astander has joined the ASTILLERO SOSTENIBLE consortium, a PERTE Naval project focused on waste treatment, water purification and emissions reduction in shipyards. The project will produce 10 outputs, including technical reports, software tools and pilot implementations, and Astander will host trials on emissions monitoring, waste characterisation and dredging operations.
Astander has joined the ASTILLERONEUTROC consortium, a Spanish naval-sector study focused on climate neutrality and decarbonisation. The project will examine emissions across shipyards, supply chains and ship operations, and produce a sector roadmap with nine outputs.
Astander has joined the ASTANDERSOSTEE project, a shipyard-focused initiative under Spain’s PERTE Naval programme aimed at cutting energy use and environmental impact in ship repair and conversion work. The Santander yard will host trials of smart energy monitoring, predictive maintenance tools and a hydroblasting system using osmotized water.
