Co-financed by the Australian and Indonesian governments, we successfully delivered the Palembang Waste Water Treatment Plant Project to improve the health, quality of life, and the natural environment for 40,000 residents on the island of Sumatra.
The project represented a significant undertaking and the centrepiece of a wider program to improve Indonesia's overall sustainability and resilience of essential water assets.
In partnership with local company, PT Pembangunan Perumahan, our scope included the construction of a 20 megalitre per day biotrickling treatment plant. Specific items included approximately 15,000 m3 of reinforced concrete structures, approximately 1000 steel driven piles, Inlet Works, Anaerobic Baffled Reactors (ABR) and ABR Effluent Diversion Box (EDB), Biological Trickling Filter (BTF), NTF feed pump station, Clarifier system, Chemical dosing system, Biogas handling system, Odour control, Solids handling, Septage Receival Station and Waste Pump Station
Upon the plant's completion, Australia's then ambassador to Indonesia, Penny Williams said...
“Successful completion of this project reflects the strong partnership between the Government of Australia, the Indonesian Government, the South Sumatera Province, and the Palembang City Governments. Together we have shown that we can build modern sanitation infrastructure to service the community.”
