United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates water market has one of the most advanced treatment infrastructures in the world:

• 90% of freshwater needs are met by SWRO
• Water recovery is common with TSE Standard (Treated Sewage Effluent)
• High construction speed and continuous project pipeline
• Demand for premium quality and guaranteed technical support
• Green building (Estidama, LEED) regulations require membrane and recovery systems

The wastewater standards of the United Arab Emirates are among the strictest in the world:

• Abu Dhabi: EAD (Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi) standards
• Dubai: DM (Dubai Municipality) Tech. Guidelines
• ADM Pearl rating, LEED certification is commonly required for projects
• TSE (reclaimed water): BOI ≤ 10 mg/L, AKM ≤ 10 mg/L, e.coli ≤ 100 CFU/100mL
• MBR systems and UV disinfection are considered mandatory

Our wastewater solutions for the UAE:

• MBR systems (the most commonly preferred for TSE recovery)
• Package treatment plants (residential complex, hotel, shopping center)
• Municipal wastewater (large capacity, AGSAR and sub-utilities tenders)
• Hotel/Shopping mall special systems (compact, odorless, stainless steel)
• MBBR (for capacity increase)

Our water treatment solutions:

• SWRO (Seawater RO) — for coastal projects
• Drinking water treatment (process)
• Industrial demineralization (DM) and EDI
• TSE — Wastewater recovery (irrigation, cooling, toilet flush)
• Ultrafiltration, nanofiltration
• Bottled water and beverage preparation systems

Industries: 5-star hotels and resorts, shopping malls, residential complexes (villa sites), industrial parks, food and beverage factories, hospitals, university campuses, military facilities.

Our service areas: Abu Dhabi, Dubai (Downtown, Marina, JLT, Business Bay, Jebel Ali), Sharjah, Ajman, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, Al Ain, Umm Al Quwain.

In our projects in the United Arab Emirates:

• High-quality engineering design (European and US standards)
• CE certified equipment is mandatory
• Field team: Combination of Turkey + UAE local partners
• English documentation (Arabic optional)
• AED or USD payment — LC or wire transfer
• 2-3 year warranty, optional long-term operation contract

Turkey-UAE operation:

• Sea transportation: 14-21 days (Mersin/Ambarlı – Jebel Ali)
• Customs: 3-7 business days
• On-site assembly: 1-3 weeks
• English/Arabic engineer and operator
• Detailed QA/QC documentation (European standard)
• Quality Control process with local inspector

Proposed technologies for UAE projects:

• Hotel/Shopping Mall: MBR + UV (for TSE)
• Residential complex: MBR (compact, odorless)
• Municipality: MBBR + UV + RO (recovery)
• Industrial: Sector-specific (DAF, anaerobic, MBR combination)
• Green building projects: MBR + wastewater recovery mandatory

We offer technology proposals tailored to the needs in every region we serve. Our turnkey solutions are determined based on the scale of the project, flow rate, and characteristics of the wastewater. Additionally, the customer's energy efficiency and operational cost targets play a decisive role in technology selection.

Recommended technologies and application areas:

• MBR (Membrane Bioreactor) — A compact solution for hotels, hospitals, and coastal holiday villages; preferred in projects requiring irrigation-related reuse.
• MBBR (Moving Bed Biofilm) — A resilient solution for increasing capacity in existing facilities and variable flow conditions.
• Package Treatment Systems — Modular ready systems for small settlements, factory campuses, and sites requiring quick installation.
• Advanced Biological Treatment (N-P removal) — Nitrogen and phosphorus removal for municipalities discharging into sensitive water bodies.
• RO + UF Membrane Systems — For drinking water, seawater desalination, and industrial process water applications.

In addition, UV disinfection, ozonation, and chlorination processes are integrated based on project specifics. As a result, we provide each customer with proven solutions based on our 25 years of engineering experience and reference projects.
