The wastewater treatment plant in the southern part of Jebel Ali City, Dubai has been renovated and expanded. Now the STP is capable to handle 675,000 m3 of wastewater per day (previously 300,000). This scaling up was necessary to meet the city’s future needs, including the new airport and the World Expo 2020. Landustrie supplied 48 no. new LANDY-7 surface aerators with additional drive units and control equipment. Mounting of the units was done under the supervision of Landustrie mechanics. The plant is located in an open desert area where the temperature rises above 50 degrees Celsius. Therefore, all drive units are protected with a sun shields. The LANDY high-efficiency aerators are tested in Landustrie’s full-scale test tank in Sneek, in the presence of the customer. The project was commissioned by the Joint Venture Besix – Larsen & Toubro, respectively a Belgian and Indian organization.
