Scope

As part of the Deephams Upgrade Project, AMK required two thirds of the existing 60 year old plant to be refurbished so flows through it could be increased by 50%, allowing one third to be taken out of service. This then enabled the new plant to be constructed on the existing site.

2 Raw Sludge Pumping Stations (1cumec) Progressive Cavity and Centrifugal Pumps
2 Return Activated Sludge Pumping Stations (2 cumec) inclined Screw and centrifugal pumps
10 PST scraping bridges, associated inlet penstocks, sludge drain and valves
