Just three months aer the opening of the cutting-edge Kruisfontein Waste Water Treatment Works, another state-of-the—art sewer plant has been completed in the Kouga region.
The Sea Vista Waste Water Treatment Works (WWTW) at St Francis Bay was ofcially opened last week.
The multi-year upgrade was done at a cost of R31 million by contractor Prentec and consulting engineers SRK.
Tiaan Claassen, principal technologist at SRK Consulting explained that the main purpose of the upgrade was to increase the capacity of the plant from 750kl/day to 2Ml/day to cater for future developments in the St Francis Bay area.
"SRK was responsible for designing and implementing the upgrade, including the implementation of additional infrastructure to meet the increased volumetric and organic loading of the works" said Tiaan Claassen.
