Hybrid Installations

Fujairah, United Arab Emirates

The Fujairah’s SWRO plant is part of the large complex proposed by Doosan to the UWEC (Union Water & Electicity Company) to fulfill its need of 500 MW (net output on the electrical grid) and 100 MIGD water production mainly used for irrigation of the Al-Ayn area due to severe depletion of the local aquifers.

The main originality of this proposal was to use a hybrid plant for the water production i.e. 62.5 MIGD from 5 MSF units coupled with the power plant and 37.5 MIGD from seawater reverse osmosis.

Equipment delivery, plant erection and commissioning were achieved within a very tight schedule of 24 months.A 6 months pilot testing optimizes the pre-treatment stage and the chemical regime in relation to the seawater quality.
