In order to address the rapidly growing demand for potable water in Abu Dhabi due to the population growth which is forecast to exceed five million by 2030, Abu Dhabi is investing in wastewater reuse and wastewater recycling projects to ensure the sustainability of its water supply.
The Abu Dhabi Sewerage Services Company (ADSSC) is currently undertaking an extensive expansion of its collection network including the multi-billion dirham strategic tunnel engineering project (STEP) to increase wastewater collection capacity which is expected to be sufficient to meet anticipated growth in the coming decades.
Alan Thomson, Managing Director of Abu Dhabi Sewerage Services Company, will be providing a keynote address and an update on the progress of STEP at the upcoming WaterWorld Middle East Conference and Exhibition (WWME) to be held from 12th to 14th October in Abu Dhabi.
As wastewater reuse and water recycling will be a key theme during WWME, the conference will host a session on "Wastewater Reuse Technologies" that will focus on case studies associated with moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR), ultraviolet (UV) treatment and reed bed technology.
