Discussion

Situation

Messla Oil Field is approx.. 600 km south of Bengasi. The existing sewage plant in Messla was out of service and redundant, which resulted in the replacement with a Clearfox containerized plant. Waste water from these applications normally has a BOD of approximately 350mg/l and a COD of approximately 700mg/l.

Problem

Remote location, requiring utmost reliability of treatment and quick installation, with minimal construction on site. Ultra high temperature, continual strong winds and sandstorms.

Solution

A waste water treatment system which is preinstalled in 20ft ISO sea containers, to be shipped internationally and robust to be easily transported by road to any remote or challenging site location.

The system operates automatically without the need for any chemicals or consumables. No specialist operator skills are required to operate the waste water treatment plant, as it is completely automatic.

Fluctuations in the flow of waste water due to changing numbers of employees on site are easily and automatically compensated for. Waste water is cleaned to European standard to permit safe discharge for irrigation and additionally for reuse.

This system is modular and can be adopted to the town growth and changing needs, or can be moved if required, to be used at a different location without problems.

FAQ

Yes, the ClearFox® containerized wastewater treatment plant is flexible and modular, making it suitable for different industries and remote locations. It can be customized to suit your wastewater composition, flow rates and environmental conditions.

The system is suitable for domestic, municipal and industrial wastewater. It can reduce organic loads such as BOD and COD and remove other pollutants using optional additional modules.

The system is designed for low-maintenance operation. Regular checks and simple maintenance work can be carried out by your own staff after a short training session.

No, the system is fully automatic. The on-site staff receives a short briefing so that they can carry out basic checks and settings. Remote monitoring is also possible.

The modular design allows easy expansion with additional containers, for example for further biological treatment (FBBR container) or additional capacities.
