Wastewater treatment plant design

Treatment systems designed around the influent and the outcome.

We design wastewater-treatment solutions for developments, institutions, hospitality facilities and industrial applications.

Our wastewater treatment plant design services

Built for real-world performance.

Our process begins with the wastewater characteristics, flow patterns, discharge or reuse objective, site constraints and operational capacity. We coordinate civil, mechanical, electrical, controls and public-health requirements into a plant that is practical to construct, operate and maintain.

Flow and wastewater characterisation

Assessment of average, peak and seasonal flows together with the expected influent quality.

Process selection and design

Evaluation and sizing of appropriate physical, biological and chemical treatment stages.

Hydraulic profile and plant layout

Coordinated levels, flows, tanks, equipment, access and circulation arranged around the site.

Sludge management

Thickening, dewatering, storage and disposal or beneficial-use strategies suited to the selected process.

Treated-water reuse

Additional treatment, storage and distribution for approved non-potable reuse applications where required.

Odour, ventilation and safety

Controls for odour, hazardous spaces, ventilation, chemical handling and safe plant operation.

Electrical, controls and monitoring

Power, standby requirements, instrumentation, automation, alarms and performance monitoring.

Tender, construction and commissioning support

Drawings, specifications, technical reviews, installation support, process start-up and performance verification.
