The Al-Jabal Al-Asfar Wastewater Treatment Plant is one of the largest facilities of its kind in Egypt, serving millions of residents in Greater Cairo.
This infrastructure is key to sustainable water management in the region, as it enables:
Its high treatment capacity makes it a critical asset within the country’s water system.
The washing system for the sludge dewatering presses had recurring problems stemming from the quality of the process water:
This situation compromised the operational availability of the equipment and resulted in additional costs at a large-scale, mission-critical facility.
To resolve the problem, an AZUD HELIX AUTOMATIC automatic disc filtration system was installed in the service water circuit that supplies the washing system for the dewatering presses.
The solution was developed in collaboration with our partner NEW AQUA SYSTEMS, ensuring seamless integration into the existing system.
The filtration system removes the suspended particles that cause blockages, ensuring water quality suitable for continuous and reliable operation.
The implementation of the filtration system has significantly improved process operations:
Overall, the solution enhances process reliability and helps optimize operating costs at a large-scale, critical facility.
