Sustainable urban development is water-consuming for many types of every-life and economic\u00a0activities. AECOM\u2019s environmental engineers help the water-sacred Kinmen County in search for\u00a0alternative water-resources from seawater desalination.<\/p>\n
Water supply dependent on lakes and reservoirs has been unable to meet local water demand inTainan along recent urban development. The risk of water shortage arises quite easily due to\u00a0depleted groundwater and unstable traditional water supply. In order to have stabilize municipal\u00a0water supply, develop water-sensitive tourism and recreation, and conserve groundwater resources,\u00a0the improvement of water supply in Kinmen has become a major task to complete.<\/p>\n
The project includes rehabilitation of the existing desalination plant with a capacity of 2,000 CMD,\u00a0and design of the desalination plant expansion with an additional capacity of 2,000 CMD. The\u00a0influent water into RO unit does not meet the requirement due to overloaded sand filter upstream\u00a0which leads to RO fouling and water shortage problems. The rehabilitation of the desalination plant\u00a0will improve functions of pre-treatment units and enhancing RO design to solve the original\u00a0problems and build well equipped and functional desalination plant to relieve water supply pressure\u00a0in Kinmen.<\/p>\n
The project will be carried out in four stages, with key tasks including basic design, bid management,environmental assessment and compliance, construction supervision, and technical document\u00a0review and consultation.<\/p>\n
