Projectdata
The Consulting Services are subdivided into three parts:
- Part 1 Feasibility Study with phased implementation concept for the sewerage measures (networks and WWTP).
- Part 2 Detailed Design, tendering and construction supervision of the sewer network and WWTP
- Part 3 Study on industrial direct and indirect polluters
The designed sewerage measures include the following physical project components:
- WWTP for Stage 1: 160,000 PE, dry weather flow 15,000 m3/d.
- WWTP for Stage 2: 240,000 PE, dry weather flow 22,500 m3/d
- Trunk main (length: approx. 16 km; ND 250 — ND 1000) to connect the service areas to the WWTP
- Sewerage networks in the villages within the project area and construction of transport facilities to connect them to centralized installations (length: approx. 75 km; ND 250 — ND 1000)
- Pumping Stations Bala, Q = 72 m³/h, Hman 80 m and Shuweika Q = 252 m³/h, Hman 12,5 m
- Pressure Pipes (ND 200, length approx. 1.5 km)
- Introduction of adequate septic sludge collection procedures
- Installation of pre-treatment units in industrial sewage treatment plants
- Introduction of an environmentally sound effluent and sewage sludge disposal concept
The implemented sewerage measures include:
- Sewerage collection system in the villages within the project area and connection to the existing WWTPs (length: approx. 75 km; ND 250 — ND 1000)
- Installation of pre-treatment units in the existing industrial WWTPs
