Meencrumlin Water Treatment Works, Co. Donegal

About This Project

MDE are proud to have worked in partnership with AECOM Ireland, Siac Civil Engineering and Irish water to deliver the new water treatment plant in Meencrumlin, Co. Donegal.  The project consisted of upgrading and expansion of an existing Water Treatment Plant from 5,500m3/day treatment capacity to 11,000m3/day treatment capacity.

The upgrading and expansion of the Main Treatment Plant involved the electrical services and instrumentation associated with: New Chemical Dosing System; Raw Water Flow Control and Flash Mixer/Flocculation Units; New Sedimentation Tanks and upgrading of existing Sedimentation Tanks using Inclined Tube Settlers; New Filters and upgrading of existing Filters and new pH Correction and Chlorination Systems.  The project also included a new treatment facility for wastes arising from the treatment plant.  This involved separating the filter backwash water from sludge bleed water, sludge thickening and final dewatering of the sludge using a plate press system.
