Pumping Stations
Wastewater "influent" from Sharjah City arrives at the plant through Three main pump stations.
Preliminary or Primary Treatment
It consist of solely in separating the floating materials & grit, sand etc. The process used are screening device for removing floating papers rags, cloths, plastic materials & detroiters (grit track)for removing grit and sand .
Secondary Treatment
Secondary treatment involves further treatment of the screened & properly mixed flow for biological oxidation by activated sludge process in aeration tanks followed by solids/ mixed liquor settlement in the final setting tanks.
Tertiary Treatment
The supernatant flow from the settlement tanks which is devoid of 85% solids. Finally passed thought the sand filters to remove remaining suspend solids, followed by pre-chlorination & ultra violet disinfection. The disinfected effluent finally pumped to the elevated tanks for town irrigation.
Sludge Treatment
The removed solid from the treatment system is treated by poly electrolyte in two stages primary thickening is carried out at belt thickeners to a achieve thicking (1.5% to 4%) this thickned sludge is digested aerobically & further thickened to 5%. The thickened sludge is pumped to the belt press to increase the thinking up to 16-18% solids, sludge is transported to the bridge No:8 (SAJAA) area to be compost. The excess sludge is dried in open yard to be utilized when required.
Odor Control
Two Stage air scrubbers are used at inlet works and our tanker discharge facility to neutralize the malodorous gases. Odor control performance is constantly monitored in PLC controlled monitoring system.
Effluent water for irrigation
Effluent is discharged to the city through a network. Part of effluent water is discharge to the see.
