Wastewater Treatment Plants
Treatment plants are critical to community health and environmental protection. We deliver engineering solutions that stabilize infrastructure, manage groundwater, and ensure compliance with strict regulatory frameworks
CHALLENGES
Common Challenges in Wastewater Treatment Plants
Wastewater facilities face complex ground and environmental risks—soft soils beneath heavy tanks, groundwater seepage and contamination threats, strict odour and noise compliance requirements, and the need to stage upgrades in live operating plants. Managing these challenges early is essential to deliver safe, compliant, and resilient treatment infrastructure.
1.
Soils Under Heavy Tanks and Treatment Structures
Massive water tanks, clarifiers, and treatment structures exert significant loads. We investigate and design ground improvement and foundations that control settlement and ensure long-term stability.
2.
Groundwater Seepage and Contamination Risks
High groundwater and contaminated soils threaten construction and operation. We provide hydrogeological assessments, seepage control, and remediation strategies to keep sites safe and compliant.
3.
Environmental & Noise Controls
Facilities must operate within strict environmental guidelines. We integrate geotechnical and environmental inputs to support odour/noise controls, approvals, and safe operational performance.
Complex Staging for Upgrades in Live Facilities
4.
Many upgrades occur while treatment plants remain online. We deliver staging advice, rapid RFIs, and practical geotechnical solutions that minimise disruption and keep facilities running.
Foundations & Ground Improvement
Custom solutions for tanks, clarifiers, and treatment structures—using soil improvement, piles, or rafts to ensure safe, long-term performance under heavy loads.
