IN A FIRST-of-its-kind project involving private sector investment in Bahrain, a multinational consortium was awarded a multi-million-dollar contract for the Muharraq sewage treatment plant (STP) last month (February).

PLASTIC in-lined sewage systems offer the best of both worlds, combining the flow coefficients and corrosion resistance of the 100 per cent plastic interior with the structural advantages and integrity of the concrete, according to Global Source Establishment, one of the region’s major suppliers of drainage and sewage accessories.

THE Jebel Ali sewage treatment plant (STP) in Dubai has been selected as the UAE Water Reuse Project of the Year as part of the Meed quality awards for projects. The architect behind the project was MWH, which was also responsible for the engineering design, construction oversight and supervision of the key development.

POLYPIPE Gulf has been busy further popularising the renowned Terrain drainage system in the region and is gearing up to meet the surge in demand for its products, especially in Qatar, where the construction sector is on the upswing.
