Case
Brings Life to Desert Water Treatment OEM- BS Egypt Water & Energy
Overview:
BS Egypt, established in 2010, is one of the biggest companies in Egypt to provide Water Desalination & Wastewater Solutions, and they also work for Cleaner and Greener environments.
BS Egypt has worked with Grundfos for almost a decade and has executed spectacular sustainable water treatment solutions across Egypt. One such project is Fayoum Live Stock Farm, located in the great depression of the Western Desert southwest of Cairo.
Situation:
Al- Fayoum Farm's establishment was complex as the water scarcity made it a desert. The nearest water source is Qarun Lake channel, a semi-saline dirty water that suffers from water pollution problems due to uncontrolled domestic and industrial waste disposal practices. These raw water quality parameters are contaminated to varying degrees, making it hazardous for livestock and farming.
Solution:
Grundfos and BS Egypt inspected the site and proposed installing an Ultrafiltration and Desalination system to provide purified water for the Livestock Farm. Grundfos offered tailored solutions of pumping, dosing & disinfection for each stage of this Water Treatment cycle with varying demands.
Raw water pumping solution from Grundfos intakes water from the lake channel to RO Plant, 5 KM away from the pump station. Grundfos equips reverse osmosis (RO) and desalination plant with Smart Digital Dosing Pump DDE variants and corrosion-resistant high-grade stainless steel CRN pump. The feed water is then pushed to Ultrafiltration & Desalination System, where DMX and CRN are installed.
Finally, purified water is fed to the product tank, and water distribution is efficiently assisted by the Grundfos Hydro Booster System – an advanced and energy-efficient pressure-boosting system supplying water with constant pressure for variable consumption.
The outcome:
At a wastewater treatment plant, reliability is paramount. Grundfos ensured low life cycle cost and a broad range of products and solutions for mechanical, biological and chemical treatment, supporting BS Egypt to meet the system designing and power commitments.
With Grundfos' strong network coupled with service & solutions support, pumping systems were delivered and installed in a short timeframe that led to the successful completion of the project.
Seeing the project's complexity, the end customer was happy with a unique, durable and energy-efficient solution. The Livestock Farm laid the foundation for the proper use of natural resources to ensure the harvesting of the benefits of sound environmental management for the next generation.
Grundfos went further and brought life in the desert in a financially and environmentally sustainable way feeding almost 60,000 animals on this farm.
The outcome
From one of the applications in Haldiram, the following savings were achieved:
- 54% reduction in connected load
- 11-month payback time
- 40% energy savings
- 28.7 tons/year of CO2 emissions reduction
- 125,056 kWh of annual energy reduction
