LA DOMINIQUE – New Antrim Project: drinking water treatment plant

Owner: Dominica Water And Sewerage Company (DOWASCO)

Supervision: FDL Consult inc. 

Contractor: Razel Water Solutions 

Financing: Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) 

Cost: 2.9 million euros 

Duration: September 2017 – May 2019 

In Dominica, Razel Water Solutions supplies and installs a complete compact 840 m3/h capacity drinking water treatment plant including: 4 flocculators, 4 settling tanks, 1 treated water container and a chemical injection system. 

This project includes the supply and installation of 4 11m x 2.2m fast sand filters, the installation of a SCADA system to manage all the installed equipment and a chlorination system, the construction and/or refurbishment of various buildings, the electrification of the installed parts and installation of an emergency generator, the installation of a fence around the site and the landscaping. 

This work began following Hurricane Maria in September 2017, despite a damaged infrastructure (roads, electricity and telephone networks, etc.) and supply issues (quarries, concrete plant). 

The design of the station has optimised energy consumption.
