Industrial Water Supply for Special Economic Zone

WABAG has installed a new industrial water treatment plant for Mundra Port and Special Economic Zone Ltd., India’s largest private port and special economic zone, incorporated as Gujarat Adani Port Limited in 1998 and located on the west coast of India. The water treatment plant — a 20 MLD seawater RO desalination plant — ensures a continuous water supply for various industrial facilities within the port, including the 5 × 660 MW power plant.

Project Highlights:

• Scope:
  • EPC contract
• Treatment Process:
  • Raw water intake from sea at stilling chamber
  • Pre-treatment (plate settler, gravity dual media filter and pressure sand filter for fine filtration)
  • Reverse Osmosis system
  • Energy recovery device: turbocharger
  • Control – automatic operation with  PLC based control system

• Impact:
  • The reverse osmosis (RO) seawater desalination plant, with a production capacity of 20 MLD (permeate), plays a vital role in securing a reliable water supply for the power plant and other key industrial utilities in Mundra, significantly reducing dependence on freshwater resources and supporting sustainable industrial growth in the region.
