Project Details
About the Slaughterhouse Treatment Plant Project

The Al-Zubair Slaughterhouse wastewater treatment facility project carried out in Basra, Iraq has a capacity of 100 m³ / Day. The project was completed in 2024 as a turnkey solution. Additionally, the design, equipment supply, installation, and commissioning processes were conducted within our company. This ensured a coordinated and error-free delivery to the customer from a single source.
The fundamental technical parameters of the project are summarized in the table below. This information provides an overview of the project's scope, engineering requirements, and delivery process.
Industrial slaughterhouse treatment facility targets a sector-specific composition. A multi-barrier approach is used. This approach includes pre-treatment, primary, biological, and advanced treatment stages. As a result, the effluent becomes compliant with discharge limits.
Slaughterhouse treatment wastewater contains high levels of blood, fats, oils, and grease (FOG) and organic load. The COD values typically range between 3,000-8,000 mg/L. Additionally, nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations are also high. DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation) pre-treatment is mandatory in this sector. Subsequently, high-efficiency treatment is achieved through a biological process.
At the end of the project, the discharge water has been produced with a quality that meets the discharge standards of SKKY (Water Pollution Control Regulation). Additionally, the facility is equipped with a modern automation infrastructure. This maximizes operational continuity and energy efficiency.
