WWT Tecnologia

What WWT Tecnologia does

WWT Tecnologia, legally known as WWT – Wellan Water Treatment and operating under the brand "WWT – Inovação em Tratamento de Água," is a Brazil-based specialized water treatment services provider focused on hospital and healthcare environments. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Lauro de Freitas, Bahia, the company delivers technical inspections, laboratory analyses, customized treatment projects, and ongoing operation and maintenance of ETA (Water Treatment Stations), ETE (Effluent Treatment Stations), and filtration systems. Its core focus is on critical hospital areas — surgical centers, ICUs, hemodialysis units, and CME (Central Sterile Supply Departments) — where water quality directly impacts patient safety, instrument sterilization, and regulatory compliance with ANVISA standards and the recently published ABNT NBR ISO 7101:2025.

The company differentiates through a deeply specialized technical team (many with over 30 years of hospital water treatment experience), proprietary effluent treatment technologies, and an integrated service model spanning the full water cycle from analysis to final distribution. Revenue is generated through professional services contracts with hospitals and healthcare facilities, with a secondary offering for industrial effluent treatment. The company employs approximately 11 people, operates primarily in the Salvador and Bahia metropolitan region, and supports clients through an in-house digital client portal (WWT APP). Strategic recent moves include technology partnerships with VEXER (reverse osmosis) and LabLAAE (water analysis), pursuit of ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications, and thought-leadership through industry events such as the 'Excelência em Tratamento de Água Hospitalar' seminar.
