In Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan, a significant project was undertaken to build a state-of-the-art drinking water treatment plant. The facility is located in a desert region near a large urban settlement, where access to clean drinking water is an essential resource for the local population.

The water treatment plant was specifically designed for the treatment of river water and has a capacity of 150,000 m³ per day. A robust raw water pump station with a screening system and seven pumps ensures that the water supply is reliable and efficient.

In the treatment building, 20 upflow filters and 8 multi-layer filters were installed to ensure thorough water purification. Additionally, a chlorine electrolysis system was integrated for disinfection, along with a chemical dosing system. The facility is equipped with 8 blowers to provide flushing air and ensure proper chemical mixing.

Another key component of the project was the sludge treatment. For this purpose, two round thickeners and two belt filter presses were used to efficiently dewater the generated sludge and ensure its environmentally responsible disposal.

The state-of-the-art water treatment plant not only ensures the supply of clean drinking water for Ashgabat and the surrounding region but also plays a significant role in the long-term water supply security and sustainable development of Turkmenistan.
