Industrial water treatment and thermal asset specialists, Townsville
About Eureka Water & Filtration
Eureka Water & Filtration is an industrial water treatment, filtration and thermal asset maintenance company based in Townsville, Queensland. We design, supply and service water and wastewater treatment systems, cooling towers and heat exchangers for mining, industrial and commercial sites across Australia, from drinking and process water through to treating wastewater so it can be reused or safely discharged. Our team works with asset managers and engineers to protect critical plant, keep it running and keep it within its regulatory requirements.
Eureka Water & Filtration was founded by Andrew Simon, who drew on his years of hands-on industry experience after seeing a gap in local support for industrial water treatment in North Queensland. We have operated from Townsville since 2002. Our people, containerised treatment equipment and consumable stock are all based here, which shortens the time between a problem and a fix.
Our services include reverse osmosis, ion exchange, mobile water treatment hire, mine water management, wastewater treatment and recycling, desludging and dewatering, water treatment plant servicing, cooling tower refurbishment, heat exchanger servicing and process filtration.
How we work on site
Engineering capability
Custom design, fabrication and mechanical restoration of heavy-duty systems, from ultrafiltration modules to industrial cooling towers.
Safety and site compliance
Every job is planned under documented SOPs and a site-specific SWMS (safe work method statement), with inductions and permits completed before we mobilise.
Regional logistics
Stock held in Townsville and direct-to-site delivery, so parts are not waiting on interstate freight.
Credentials and contractor registration
The details procurement and site teams usually ask for before we start.
