Black & Veatch to upgrade Loughguile wastewater treatment

Black & Veatch, a leading global engineering, consulting and construction company, and its joint venture partner Dawson WAM are making good progress at a number of rural sites in Northern Ireland for Water Service's Northern Region Integrated Wastewater Treatment Framework.

Enabling Water Service to reduce the number of small works by redirecting flows to suitably upgraded Wastewater Treatment Works, Loughguile is a fitting example of the type of small-to-medium wastewater projects being undertaken by Black & Veatch, which includes the entire civil, mechanical, electrical and process design – as well as off-site pumping stations, hydraulics and sewerage infrastructure.

The decision to contract local companies for completing the projects has provided Water Service with enhanced value, competitive costs and on-time project completions. In addition, the upgraded systems at Loughguile will employ membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology providing substantially better final effluent quality than conventional secondary treatment.
