A state-of-the-art WWTP for Egypt, featuring an advanced and flexible treatment process that enables sustainable Water Reuse.
WABAG successfully executed the Port Said Wastewater Treatment Plant under a Design, Build, Operate (DBO) scheme. The plant is designed to treat municipal wastewater, with a capacity of 40,000 m³/day and a peak flow of 107,000 m³/day using a 3-stage treatment process. The facility supports water reuse for landscaping and irrigation, contributing to sustainable water management in the region.
Project Features:
- Scope: Design, engineering, supply, installation, start-up supervision and 12 months of Operation & Maintenance (O&M).
- Treatment Process: The plant was designed to handle varying flow rates efficiently, with multi-stage treatment ensuring effective water reuse.
- Mechanical Pre-Treatment: Coarse and Fine Screens, Aerated Grit and Grease Removal
- Biological Treatment: Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) process with extended aeration for aerobic sludge stabilization.
- Tertiary Treatment: Disc filtration.
- Disinfection by Chlorination.
- Sludge Treatment: Thickening and Drying
- Impact: The Port Said WWTP enhances local water management practices by providing treated wastewater suitable for landscaping and irrigation, thereby supporting sustainable development in Port Said and protecting natural water resources.
