Plant/Process Description:
First stage is mechanical treatment which
consists of seven screens followed by grit
removal. Pre-aeration tanks and then the primary
settling tanks. The effluent then passes through
the aeration tanks where only BOD is removed.
The ammonia is treated with biological filters
followed by the tertiary settling tanks. After
sand filters the effluent is chlorinated and
supplied to the city for horticulture irrigation.
The primary and the biological stage sludge is
thickened with polymer and fed to the anaerobic
digesters. The anaerobically digested sludge is
dewatered with centrifuges and sent for thermal
drying and windrow drying. The dried product is
used for horticulture by the city and the
general public.

Directions:
The AL Aweer Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is currently the only wastewater treatment plant serving Dubai City. Both domestic wastewater and septage are collected by sewers and pumped to the treatment plant site, about 25 kilometers away from the city center. The plant provides both tertiary treated effluent for reuse in irrigation, and treated sludge converted to manure for use as a soil conditioner and fertilizer.
