Project overview
About this development
Construction of a faecal sludge treatment plant within Wajir County, Kenya. Scope of works could include: New pre-treatment works (inlet works). 1No - Inlet works/pre-treatment works with 49m³/day capacity. The inlet/pre-treatment works include a sludge discharge bay, sludge holding basin with a manual screening system and flow distribution chambers. 2No. mixed sludge pumping stations to transfer mixed (septic and bucket) sludge from the holding basins to the sludge drying beds. New sludge drying beds (13No. 25.4m by 25.4m by 0.4m filter bed to dewater the sludge removed from the sludge holding basins).New biosolids drying slabs (80No. 7m by 7m for extended drying and sanitisation of the dewatered sludge removed from the sludge drying beds). Earth embankment anaerobic ponds consisting of- 2No. primary anaerobic ponds in parallel each with capacity 728m³ wet volume (size of each is 23.6m by 23.6m, and depth 3.5m at top crest level). Earth embankment anaerobic ponds consisting of- 2No. secondary anaerobic ponds in parallel each with capacity 218m³ wet volume (size of each is 14.5m by 13.5m, and depth 3.5m at top crest level). 2No. Earth embankment facultative ponds in parallel each with capacity 1240m³ wet volume (size of each is 42.1m by 23.1m, and depth 2m at top crest level). 2No. Earth embankment maturation ponds in series each with capacity 531m³ wet volume (size of each is 27.1m by 27.1m, and depth 1.5m at top crest level). 4No. Earth embankment horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands parallel to each with a capacity of 448m² wet volume (size of each is 14m by 8m, and depth 0.5m). Operations building, incinerator shed with manually fed incinerator, generator house and guard house. Site works (double leaf gate, 3km chain-link fence, 1.1km of 3m wide and 1.2km of 6m wide (total 2.3km) gravel road and paved parking areas. Electro-mechanical works – including pipes, pumps, valves, switch gear, cabling, and controls. The exact GPS location is not known and the Marker has been placed at 1.7437181, 40.0652107.
