Containerized Sewage Treatment Plant (STP)

Compact | Modular | Mobile Wastewater Treatment Solution

The Containerized Industrial Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is a fully integrated, plug-and-play wastewater treatment system housed within ISO shipping containers. Designed for rapid deployment and ease of operation, it is ideal for temporary or permanent wastewater treatment in construction sites, resorts, industrial facilities, labor camps, remote communities, and emergency response situations.

Utilizing MBBR (Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor) and advanced biological treatment processes, these systems ensure reliable removal of BOD, COD, TSS, nitrogen, and pathogens while meeting stringent effluent standards for reuse or discharge.

🔑 Key Features & Technical Benefits

• ⚡ Containerized Modular Design – Packaged in 20-ft or 40-ft ISO containers for quick transport, plug-and-play installation, and minimal site civil works.
• 🌱 Advanced MBBR Technology – High-surface-area biofilm carriers (>600–700 m²/m³) ensure robust biological treatment and stable performance under varying loads.
• 💧 Effluent Quality – Meets Dubai Municipality & international standards for irrigation and reuse: BOD < 10 mg/L, COD < 50 mg/L, TSS < 10 mg/L, Ammonia < 1 mg/L.
• 🛠️ Pre-engineered & Factory-tested – Systems are skid-mounted, pre-wired, and tested before delivery, reducing commissioning time.
• 🏗️ Rapid Deployment – Fully containerized units can be operational within days of arrival at site.
• 🔧 Low O&M – Automated controls, VFD-driven blowers, and minimal operator intervention reduce running costs.
• ⏳ Durable & Weatherproof – Built in coated mild steel or stainless-steel ISO containers, suitable for harsh climates with >20 years lifespan.

⚙️ Treatment Process Flow

1. Screening & Lifting Station – Bar screens and pumps remove rags, plastics, and large solids.

2. Equalization Tank – Balances flow and homogenizes wastewater.

3. Anoxic Tank – Facilitates denitrification (nitrogen removal).

4. MBBR Aeration Tank – Biofilm carriers degrade organics (BOD/COD) and support nitrification.

5. Secondary Settler / Tube Settler – Clarifies treated water by separating biomass.

6. Chlorine Contact Tank – Ensures pathogen disinfection with controlled chlorine dosing.

7. Tertiary Treatment – Multimedia filter (MMF) + Activated Carbon Filter (ACF) polish effluent, removing turbidity, odor, and residual chlorine.

8. Treated Water Tank – Storage for reuse in irrigation or flushing.

9. Sludge Handling – Sludge holding tank + centrifuge/screw press dewatering unit with polymer dosing.

10. Odor Control Unit – Activated carbon scrubbers for lifting station & sludge areas.

📍 Applications of Containerized STP

1. Labor camps & worker accommodations
2. Hotels, resorts & island developments
3. Construction & mining sites
4. Remote villages & disaster relief operations
5. Temporary events & military bases
6. Industrial wastewater (low to medium strength, non-toxic)

📊 Available Capacities

1. Standard ranges: 50 m³/day to 1000 m³/day (50 KLD – 1000 KLD).
2. Multiple modules can be combined for larger flows.
3. Available in 20-ft or 40-ft ISO containers, stackable if space is limited.

💡 Why Choose Containerized STP?
