Cambi signs lease agreement for a THP unit with Thames Water in Oxford
Cambi has signed a lease for a compact thermal hydrolysis process (THP) unit to provide additional treatment capacity at the Oxford sewage treatment works.
The agreement has an initial one-year term with two one-year extension options. Thames Water will operate the system. Annual maintenance is included in each year of the lease.
“Our collaboration with Thames Water spans three decades and has played an important role in advancing sustainable solids treatment in the UK. This agreement underlines Cambi’s flexible delivery model, using leasing solutions tailored to meet immediate operational needs while permanent capacity is being evaluated”, said Peder Lillebø, Managing Director of Cambi Solutions.
The lease of the Cambi THP will increase local treatment capacity by more than 50%, enabling Thames Water to process all solids locally instead of trucking considerable volumes for treatment elsewhere.
Thames Water is the UK’s largest water and wastewater services provider, serving around 16 million people in London and surroundings. The utility operates Cambi THP systems at seven locations.
Commissioning is planned in 2026, following installation and commissioning supervision that is included in the first-year lease fee.
