Kahramaa – the Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation – has signed an extended water purchase agreement with the plant’s owner, Umm al Houl Power. The project involves expanding the existing Facility D IWWP plant in Economic Zone 3, south of the capital Doha.
Samsung – the lead contractor on the construction project – has commissioned Acciona Agua as a subcontractor for the new desalination facilities. Acciona Agua has already worked with inge on various major projects in Southeast Asia. Based on this excellent cooperation – together with the German UF supplier’s outstanding services and technical support – inge® won the contract to deliver their Multibore® technology for this mega-project in the Middle East.
In total, the project will require 5,500 dizzer XL type modules in a T-Rack® 3.0 configuration, installed in 48 trains of UF racks. Thanks to their space-saving design, these modules are the perfect fit for the extremely limited space available in the existing facility, which offered no room for further expansion. The challenge was to fit the 2 lines of 24 trains in a total area of just 2,400 m².
The UF system will provide output capacity of 675 MLD (2.56 million m3/d) or 148.5 MIGD (178 MGD, 674,000 m3/d) as a pretreatment stage for the downstream reverse osmosis stage. The UF stage is due to come online in September 2020, and the whole plant is expected to be operational by February 2021.
