SDPW completes Al Dhaid Wastewater Treatment Plant
High capacity and advanced technologies The Al Dhaid plant has a capacity of 1,500 cubic meters per day, designed to treat large volumes of wastewater according to the highest environmental and health standards. Equipped with advanced technologies, the plant ensures treated water quality and minimises environmental impact. The facility includes modern systems for monitoring water quality, ensuring safety and security. Strategic infrastructure development The Al Dhaid plant is a key part of Sharjah's comprehensive strategic plan for developing sewage networks across the emirate. In coordination with the Sharjah Urban Planning Council, the plan focuses on covering high-density areas. The plant features sedimentation basins, pump rooms, a control centre, and additional infrastructure to support its operations. Supporting Sharjah's vision for sustainable development The SDPW is working on several expansions to meet the region's growing needs and support Sharjah's rapid infrastructure and construction growth, under the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Dr Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah. The plant plays an essential role in using treated water for irrigating green spaces and local agriculture, contributing to Sharjah's sustainable development efforts. Use of environmentally friendly materials Engineer Hind Al Hashimi, Director of the Public Services Department, highlighted that eco-friendly materials such as Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) were used instead of reinforced concrete. GGBS requires less energy to produce and generates significantly fewer carbon emissions than traditional cement production, making the project more environmentally friendly. Future expansion plans The Al Dhaid Sewage Treatment Plant is one of many projects aimed at enhancing life quality and sustainability for future generations. The department is also working on the Al Madam Sewage Plant, which will have a capacity of 2,000 cubic meters per day, and preparing to tender the construction of the Mleiha Sewage Plant, furthering Sharjah's commitment to preserving water resources and promoting sustainable development.
