Sharjah Sewage Treatment Works, UAE

Halcrow has a comprehensive range of skills within the field of waste water treatment. This includes collection and transmission, treatment plants, effluent disposal and re-use, sludge treatment and disposal.

The disposal of waste water is usually a prime requirement of any development. Halcrow can provide services that cover all aspects of a developer's water service infrastructure requirements. Halcrow has expertise in optimising the continuing use of this valuable asset and providing operational advice:

	feasibility and planning
	design and procurement
	installation, commissioning and monitoring
	sewerage network modelling
	water cycle strategies

Recurring droughts throughout the last decades have revealed that water supply is often insufficiently balanced to the demand and thus vulnerable to extreme climatic events and spatial or seasonal demand peaks. In the context of a more sustainable water management, wastewater reuse opens up an alternative dependable water resource.

Halcrow offers a fully integrated service starting at the earliest stages of development with project viability, continuing throughout the project to ensure that the planning, design and implementation of waste water infrastructure is completed on time and to budget.
