Sludge Handling

Al Khumrah is the largest existing WWTP site in the southern part of Jeddah City in the industrial area of Al Khumrah District in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

WATEQ in collaboration with SPIRAC supplied the sludge handling, storage, and truck outloading systems for the latest upgrade to Al Khumra. The project scope included 2 x 200m3 silos with high-capacity sliding frame outloading systems, fabricated entirely of 316 stainless steel and two shaftless screw conveyor trains including a 15m vertical lift from the centrifuge plant to the top of the silos. This design ensures odor and mess containment, low maintenance, low power consumption, and extended life expectancy in a harsh coastal/desert environment.
