water-link - Virtual visit of Induss2bis
The port of Ghent covers a vast area and is largely unknown territory for outsiders. Nevertheless, dozens of enterprises are based in the port, often working with state-of-the-art technology. Water-link is one of those organizations. Whilst water-link is mostly known as the drinking water supplier for the Antwerp region, the organization is also responsible for large-scale water treatment for the industrial sector in the port of Ghent. To showcase a brand-new project of theirs, water-link called on our experts. This marked the start of a story that went from outings with a racing drone to helicopter footage…
In 2018, water-link started construction of its second industrial water treatment plant. It purifies and desalinates dock water to provide process water of various quality levels to large enterprises that operate in the port. Accurate and reliable water production is crucial for many industrial processes.
By 2020, the project had been completed. Plenty of reason for a grand opening, after two years of construction. However, an on-site event soon proved near-impossible, due to ever-changing covid restrictions. That’s why we decided to create a large-scale digital alternative for an on-site opening, emphasizing the scale and importance of the new water treatment plant.
