Meeting the Needs of Industrial Wastewater Treatment
The Coca-Cola Wastewater Treatment Plant in Dammam required robust and highly durable storage tanks to process and treat the wastewater generated by their production facility. Center Enamel’s Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks were chosen for their exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and the ability to withstand harsh chemical environments that are common in industrial wastewater treatment.
Why Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks?
Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are engineered to combine the best properties of both materials: the strength and flexibility of steel, along with the corrosion resistance of glass. This makes them an ideal solution for the demanding conditions found in wastewater treatment applications, where chemical exposure, temperature fluctuations, and long-term durability are critical.
Key Benefits of Center Enamel’s GFS Tanks
Corrosion Resistance: The glass coating on the tanks provides excellent resistance to corrosion, which is vital for handling sewage, sludge, and chemical-rich wastewater. This results in a longer tank lifespan and reduced maintenance requirements.
Durability: With a steel substrate at their core, the tanks offer structural strength and can withstand significant pressure from both the stored liquid and external environmental conditions.
Flexibility: Center Enamel’s GFS tanks are designed for easy installation, with bolted construction that allows for rapid assembly, even in challenging environments like industrial sites. This flexibility enabled us to complete the project on schedule.
Eco-Friendly: By providing efficient wastewater treatment solutions, Center Enamel helps industries like Coca-Cola to reduce their environmental footprint and meet sustainability targets.
Project Highlights
Sludge Treatment: The project features anaerobic and aerobic sludge tanks, with volumes of 119m³ and 82m³ respectively. These tanks are critical for breaking down and processing the sludge generated during the treatment of wastewater.
Wastewater Conditioning and Post Aeration: The conditioning tank (422m³) and post aeration tank (412m³) ensure that the wastewater is properly treated before it is released or reused. This is an essential part of maintaining high-quality effluent standards.
Anaerobic Reactor: The anaerobic reactor, with a capacity of 1051m³, is the heart of the wastewater treatment process. It helps in breaking down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, significantly reducing waste volume and producing biogas as a byproduct.
Efficient Sewage Storage: The sewage storage tank (323m³) provides an effective solution for holding untreated wastewater before it enters the treatment process.
Superior Roof Technology
Center Enamel’s tanks are equipped with high-quality roofs, including both Glass-Fused-to-Steel and Aluminum Alloy roofs. These roofs are designed to protect the stored wastewater and sludge from contamination, while also offering durability and low maintenance over the long term.
Delivering on Time and Ensuring Success
The Coca-Cola Wastewater Treatment Plant project in Dammam was completed on time, with all tanks fully operational since August 2017. The combination of our advanced GFS tank technology and our commitment to quality installation ensured the project’s success. Today, the plant continues to operate efficiently, helping Coca-Cola treat its wastewater in an environmentally responsible manner.
