Engineering Your Way: Flexible Partnership Models

We recognize that every development project has a different team structure. IWS offers a flexible engineering engagement model based on your specific needs.

  • Collaborative Support We work alongside your on-site team or third-party engineering firm to provide specialized wastewater expertise and technology integration.
  • Full-Service Engineering Our team can manage the entire process directly, providing a turn-key technical solution from initial design through commissioning.

The Wastewater Challenges Hospitality Properties Can't Afford to Ignore

Hospitality properties face a unique wastewater variable:

The guests are always there. Remote or environmentally sensitive locations — the ones that make a property worth visiting — are exactly where conventional sewer infrastructure is unavailable. IWS works with hotel operators and developers to provide technical solutions that fit the site and satisfy regulators without disrupting the guest experience. We focus on technical reliability to ensure your infrastructure supports your brand reputation.

We Solve Common Wastewater Challenges for Hospitality Properties

Decentralized Systems for Remote Locations

The properties furthest from municipal infrastructure often provide the most valuable guest experiences.

We design decentralized onsite systems that treats wastewater to permitted discharge or reclamation standards without requiring a sewer connection.

Small Footprints and Active Operations

Hospitality properties do not pause for infrastructure work.

IWS has integrated complex technology, into fully operational casinos and below-grade coastal systems while keeping the property open and the guest experience intact.

Accelerated Project Timelines

Biological treatment of high-strength food and beverage wastewater depends on sustained, reliable oxygen transfer.

IWS has completed mission-critical systems, such as the wastewater system for Arizona’s Grand Canyon West Airport facility serving up to 5,000 visitors daily, in 45 days from mobilization despite blasting through 16 feet of solid bedrock.

Treatment Technology Built for Hospitality Applications

Hospitality wastewater systems must be compact, reliable, and require minimal daily operator attention. We select the right technology based on your specific site constraints and permit requirements.

Treatment Technologies for Hospitality Applications:

  • Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) Systems: MBR technology produces high-quality effluent in a fraction of the footprint of conventional treatment. Our modular MBR lineup, including the NXT|MBR™, ranges from 2,500 GPD to millions of GPD and is available for purchase, lease, or lease-to-own.
  • Water Reuse Systems: IWS designs systems specifically configured for landscape irrigation, infiltration, and other non-potable reuse purposes from the outset.
  • Automation and Controls: Remote monitoring and automated operation reduce the daily staffing burden. We build control systems in-house, including PLC/HMI programming, SCADA integration, and mobile monitoring.

Why Hospitality Developers Choose IWS

A wastewater failure at a resort is a significant liability. IWS offers advanced technology and decades of application experience to ensure your system is built to keep up with your property’s demands.

We offer:

  • Flexible Engineering Support: Choose the level of involvement that fits your project, from supporting your civil engineers to full specialty design.
  • Proven Hospitality Experience: IWS has completed projects for hotels, resorts, casinos, and destination properties across remote, environmentally sensitive, and operationally constrained sites throughout North America.
  • Advanced Modular, Scalable Technology: Access to our full modular, scalable MBR lineup, sized from small boutique properties to large destination resorts.
  • Rapid Emergency Response: If an existing system goes down at an operating property, IWS responds quickly to restore compliance and minimize disruption to guests and operations.
