Tailor-made solutions to make a difference
LAYER ELECTRONICS, an Italian manufacturer of a range of electrotechnical and electronic support systems for its clientele across the globe, has supplied an advanced industrial UPS to assist one of the most significant drainage projects in the Middle East, the Al Dhakhira Sewage Treatment Plant in Qatar.
Entirely designed and developed in Italy, the highly advanced and customised industrial UPS 2x2 kVA, 2x15 kVA, 4x40 kVA, 2x60 kVA, 2x80 kVA, 2x100 kVA, 2x250 kVA, with input and output transformers, were manufactured in two months, delivering all the units by the end of 2019, as requested by Hyundai Rotem, a South Korean manufacturing and environmental facilities organisation. Equipped with 2-mm-thick cabinets and not-RAL colour, Layer Electronics’ innovative industrial UPS solution installed at a mega sewage treatment plant helps produce high quality treated wastewater for use in non restricted irrigation.
The project will be serving 205,000 people, an estimated population for 2036, in the area with a peak flow of 1,950 litres a second. The project comprises Sewage infrastructure with a daily average flow of 56,200 m3/day. Sewage transmission mains will consist 21 km of twin rising mains and approximately 11 km of twin rising mains. The treatment process includes Mechanical Treatment, Biological Nutrient Removal, using Sequencing Batch Reactors (SBRs), Sand Filters and Ultrafiltration, Ultra Violet (UV) disinfection and chlorination system. After completion of the project in the third quarter of 2020, treated water can be used for irrigation in agriculture and landscaping, and the sludge can be recycled into construction material and compost.
In the 13th year of its operations in the Middle East, Layer Electronics is striving to consolidate its presence in the region with an increased market share. It is working towards expanding its operations in the America, Africa and Asia markets. To meet the growing power demands, the company implements essential updates to its AC & DC UPS and inverters, increasingly focused on the industrial, oil and gas, and utilities markets, with their stringent specifications.
