Aquatech awarded a 10,000 m³/d MED plant in Egypt
Aquatech is to design and supply a multiple-effect distillation
(MED) seawater desalination system for the Abu Qir Thermal Power Plant
near Alexandria, Egypt.
The client, West Delta Electricity Production Company, and consultant
PGESCo, specified MED technology for uninterrupted water supply to
boilers after carefully studying all available desalination technology
options.
The Abu Qir facility comprises two MED units with thermal vapor
compression, each with a capacity of 5,000 m³/d (net) to be supplied to
the power station's boilers and other users. Aquatech's scope includes
design, equipment supply, testing, and commissioning of two MED units
complete with accessories to produce distilled water within the
challenging schedule demanded by the project.
