Meridian Co.Meridian Co.
Custom industrial and municipal wastewater treatment solutions , designed around your problem, your target outcome, and the conditions you operate in.
Industrial Wastewater · 2026Cleaner water, cleaner waste streams, healthier environments.
Untreated industrial wastewater and municipal waste carry real consequences: contaminated waterways, public health risks, and long-term environmental liability that falls on the communities closest to it.
We design custom solutions. Every engagement starts by understanding where you are today and where you need to get to. We then design around that. Each stage has a clear purpose and a defined set of information that we require from you to move forward.
Meridian Co. designs and delivers custom treatment solutions for industrial operators and municipal bodies. We assess the problem, define the target outcome, and build the solution around it, whether that means a complete new system, an upgrade to existing infrastructure, or a full replacement.
Our solutions are deployed across private industrial operations and public municipal systems, guided by a single standard: it has to work in the real world, to a defined and measurable outcome.
Built for industrial and municipal operations.
We work across a broad range of industrial and municipal sectors. If your operation generates wastewater or waste streams as part of its process, we can help.
Most clients come to us with one or more of the following. If any of these sound familiar, we can help.
A five-stage engagement.
We design custom solutions. Every engagement starts by understanding where you are today and where you need to get to. We then design around that. Each stage has a clear purpose and a defined set of information we need from you to move forward, so the conversation stays focused and avoids unnecessary back and forth.

Design
Problem Definition
We establish two things: where you need to get to, and where you are today. Everything that follows depends on having both clearly defined.
What we need from you
- What's in it?
Contaminants, pH, volume/flow rate, any known toxins.
- What's the target?
Discharge standards from the relevant authority (EPA, local council, etc.).
- What happens to the treated water?
Discharged to sewer, waterway, reused on-site, or irrigated.
- What's the source?
Industry type and process generating the waste (mining, food processing, manufacturing, etc.).
- What's the budget?
Capital spend available and any ongoing operational cost constraints.
Site Review
We assess your site and operational environment. Some clients have existing infrastructure; others are starting from nothing. Either way, we need the physical picture before design begins.
What we need from you
- Where is it?
Location, site size, available footprint for equipment.
- How much waste, how often?
Peak vs. average flow, seasonal variation.
- What's already there?
Existing tanks, pumps, pits, treatment gear, and existing infrastructure.
- What utilities are available?
Power supply (voltage, capacity) and water access.
Master Services Agreement
We formalise the engagement with a simple agreement, giving both sides clarity on scope, expectations, and next steps before engineering work commences.
What's involved
- Agreement
A straightforward Master Services Agreement (MSA) covering scope, IP, and confidentiality.
- Engagement Fee
A portion of the design fee paid upfront before engineering work begins.
- Completion Payment
Remaining balance due upon completion of the solution design.
- Milestones
Clear deliverables and timelines agreed in writing.
- Defined terms
If the project direction changes or does not proceed.
Solution Design
With the problem defined, the site understood, and the engagement formalised, we develop a tailored treatment solution specific to your waste stream and operational environment.
What we deliver
- Technology selection
The right treatment process for your contaminants, volume, and discharge targets.
- System configuration
Equipment layout designed around your available space and existing infrastructure.
- Performance modelling
Projected outcomes benchmarked against your regulatory requirements.
- CAPEX and OPEX breakdown
Full cost picture covering equipment, installation, and ongoing operations.
- Implementation roadmap
Phased delivery plan with clear milestones from approval to commissioning.
- Formal proposal and quote
Recommended solution, scope of work, and fixed pricing for client approval.
Implementation
We build, install, and commission the solution, coordinating around your operational schedule every step of the way. Nothing is handed over until it performs to specification.
What's involved
- Site mobilisation
Equipment delivery, civil works, and installation coordinated to minimise disruption.
- Commissioning
System start-up, testing, and performance verification against agreed targets.
- Operational handover
Your team trained and confident before we step back.
- Documentation
As-built drawings, operating manuals, and compliance records provided at handover.
- Your side
Site access, a single point of contact, and advance notice of any operational constraints or shutdown windows.
What to bring to our first conversation.
You don't need a complete brief. The four points below are all we need to get started. If you only have one or two, that is fine, we can help define the rest.
Your Operation
What your operation does and what is generating the wastewater.
Current Method
Your current disposal or treatment method, if one exists.
Compliance Target
The compliance or discharge requirement you are working toward.
Budget & Timeline
Funds available and the window you need to deliver in.
Let's Discuss Your Project
Whether you're managing an active waste challenge or planning a new facility, we'd like to understand your project and explore how we can deliver results for you.
