JV gets Davyhulme makeover deal

摘要

The Laing O'Rourke Imtech joint venture will carry out the multimillion-pound modernisation of United Utilities' (UU) Davyhulme Wastewater Treatment Works in Manchester. The modernisation programme will see the significant remediation of previously abandoned land in advance of the construction of six circular primary settlement tanks (PST) and a new activated sludge plant (ASP) with ten circular final settlement tanks (FST). This work will lead to significant environmental benefits for the site, improving the outflow, and subsequently the quality, of water entering the Manchester Ship Canal. The JV will employ industry leading digital engineering and DfMA (Design for Manufacture and Assembly) processes on the project.
