MACC starts work on the Salfeet Wastewater Treatment Plant

MACC has started design-build and operation and maintenance work on the Salfeet Wastewater Treatment Plant in the West Bank, with a 248 kW solar PV plant, for the Municipality of Salfeet under the KfW-funded Salfeet Sewerage Project.

In June 2019 MACC mobilised and started work on the Salfeet Wastewater Treatment Plant in the West Bank. The contract covers design, construction and commissioning of the plant, a turnkey 248 kW solar PV plant, and two years of operation and maintenance.

The project is part of the KfW-funded Salfeet Sewerage Project for the Municipality of Salfeet, under a FIDIC Yellow Book design-build contract supervised by GITEC-IGIP. The plant is designed for about 1,900 m³/day and 20,000 population equivalent, using Imhoff tanks, trickling filters and final sedimentation, with five sludge drying beds.

MACC's scope includes the inlet works with screens and aerated grit and grease chambers, two Imhoff tanks, two trickling filters, two final sedimentation tanks, an odour-control unit, operational and administration buildings, and training of the municipality's operating staff, including training abroad.
