Nuovo

What Nuovo does

Nuovo S.r.l. is an Italian private engineering consultancy that designs and delivers turnkey waste treatment plants for solid, liquid, and sludge waste of civil and industrial origin — both hazardous and non-hazardous. Founded in 1990 and headquartered in Città Sant'Angelo (Pescara), Abruzzo, the firm operates with a 1–10 employee headcount and serves industrial enterprises primarily in Sicily and Southern Italy, with notable reference projects including the Seap Depurazione Acque platform expansion in Aragona-Favara (550 to 850 mc/day capacity with MBR and reverse osmosis treatment sections) and the Mecogest hazardous and non-hazardous waste storage facility in Gela (authorized for up to 30,000 tonnes/year under Art. 208 authorization). The service portfolio spans the full plant lifecycle: consulting, detailed electro-mechanical design, authorization and permit management (including AUA, Art. 208, and ZES procedures), construction supervision, commissioning, and operator training; in select engagements the company also acts as general contractor for design-supply-construction delivery.

The technical offering rests on two proprietary assets: the Hydro-Shocks® Soil Washing system, a patented single-pass architecture that replaces traditional hydrocyclones and attrition cells to reduce energy and wear costs; and the Mappatura Analitica Preventiva (MAP), an internal pre-investment feasibility methodology that the company reports has been applied with more than 30 clients over four years. The business model is professional-services and managed-services based, with revenue generated through project-based enterprise engagements at undisclosed contract values, supported by a direct enterprise field-sales motion, thought-leadership content marketing, and a free monthly consultation funnel. Nuovo holds ISO 9001 certification (RINA), is privately held with no external investors or funding rounds disclosed, and is led by General Manager Claudio Di Giacomo with Ferdinando Di Giacomo contributing as technical author.

Direct peers

• Smith & Loveless: US-based manufacturer and designer of packaged wastewater treatment plants and lift stations for municipal and industrial applications. Closely aligned with Nuovo's niche focus on engineered, turnkey wastewater treatment systems for industrial operators.
• Aquatech International: Provider of water and wastewater treatment technologies and engineered systems for industrial clients, including design-build of treatment platforms. Comparable to Nuovo in delivering specialized industrial wastewater treatment solutions with proprietary process know-how.
• DHI Group: Independent water and environmental consulting group providing modeling, engineering, and advisory services for water and waste projects globally. Directly comparable as a specialist consulting/engineering firm serving similar clients with similar project-based delivery.
• VA Tech Wabag: Global EPC contractor specializing in water and wastewater treatment plants for municipal and industrial clients. Directly comparable to Nuovo in core business of designing and delivering waste treatment plants, with broader geographic reach and significantly larger scale.
• Degremont (SUEZ): Engineering brand within SUEZ specializing in design and construction of drinking water and wastewater treatment plants. Closely aligned with Nuovo's core business of designing and building treatment plants for industrial and municipal clients.

Broad incumbents

• Ecolab: Global leader in water, hygiene, and energy technologies with significant wastewater treatment solutions and on-site services for industrial customers. Comparable in serving industrial wastewater management needs but at much larger scale with a chemical-plus-equipment model.
• Veolia Water Technologies: Global environmental services giant offering water and wastewater treatment plant design, build, and operation alongside broader waste management services. Overlaps with Nuovo's waste treatment plant engineering but as part of a much wider portfolio spanning collection, recycling, and operations.
• SUEZ Water Technologies & Solutions: Major global environmental and water services group with treatment plant engineering capabilities as part of its broader portfolio. Comparable business line to Nuovo's plant design work but bundled with operating, financing, and digital services at much larger scale.
• Alfa Laval: Global supplier of separation, heat transfer, and fluid handling equipment widely used in industrial waste and wastewater treatment plants. Overlaps with Nuovo's process-equipment layer but serves as a broad component supplier rather than full plant designer.

Emerging players

• Hydrotech: Specialized provider of discfilter and membrane technologies for water and wastewater treatment applications. Comparable to Nuovo as a niche technology specialist supplying into the same treatment plant value chain, though at the component rather than full-plant level.
