Compact water and wastewater treatment systems process design in Hong Kong | WEBINAR

Hosted by the CIWEM South Eastern branch

Event description

With the high price of land, Hong Kong authorities are looking to achieve maximum treatment capacity on existing works footprints. Building on Binnies experience at Tai Po Water Treatment Works, the first stacked treatment facility in Hong Kong, our speaker, David Jackson developed compact treatment design options for many projects.

At Tai Po, Binnies used an innovative three storey buried pipe gallery to achieve compact stacked treatment in the early 2000's. The next generation of treatment plants is using new technology, close-coupled and stacked treatment units to achieve even more compact treatment layouts.

At Sha Tau Kok, a new treatment plant on the existing works footprint will treat eight times the current flows to a strict effluent permit discharging to sensitive water. At Siu Ho Wan, the new treatment stream will treat raw water to four log Cryptosporidiumand Giarrdia removal, Manganese and MIB oxidation using ozone within a six storey single structure treatment stream.

In this talk, we will discuss design at the Sha Tau Kok Sewage Treatment Works and Siu Ho Wan Water Treatment Works, exploring how to achieve challenging treatment objectives within tiny spaces.

CIWEM members and non-members are welcome to attend this webinar, which is aimed at those interested in working in an overseas environment.

Part of the CIWEM Water Governance and Catchment Management series.
