Delterra Engineering Ltd is a company that specializes in projects that integrate sustainable water systems, wastewater systems and energy systems. There is often an integrated solution that uses a combined approach, for example hydro or solar power combined with water delivery and treatment. The future of municipal and larger private water systems can be designed to incorporate energy generation and recovery with new projects.
For example, remote infrastructure such as water intakes and pressure reduction installations can generate electricity from micro-hydro or solar rather than run long power lines to the site. Wastewater may be treated and recycled for use in irrigation, or the heat retained in wastewater reclaimed by the use of heat pump equipment.
Whatever the project, Delterra Engineering can take a “Big Picture” approach and look at the best sustainable design solution, that integrates potable water needs, wastewater usage and energy reduction or generation.
Delterra services municipalities, regional districts, and private projects such as developments and resorts. Project values typically taken on range from $5000 to $5 Million.
Delterra Engineering Ltd was incorporated in February 2006 as a company specializing in Public and Private water and wastewater treatment projects. Trevor Shephard, P.Eng. has over 15 years of continuous engineering experience, most of which is in solving specialty process and environmental problems. The last 8 years have been directly concerned with water and wastewater treatment, and municipal civil engineering.
