In response to the ever-increasing water demand in the Northern Emirates and the UAE, Etihad Water & Electricity proposed sponsorship of a Sea Water Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) desalination plant near Marjan Island, south of the border with the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, in the Emirate of Umm Al Quwain (200 km north of Abu Dhabi).
The owner consortium, comprising of Mubadala along with Saudi Arabia’s Utilities developer, ACWA Power and Etihad Water & Electricity of the UAE have built one of the world’s largest 682,000m3/day desalination plants which has a capacity of 150 MIGD.
The NAQA’A desalination, Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) technology produces up to 150 MIGD potable water, equivalent to 681,900 m3/day. The principal project components include a 600m seawater open channel intake, a 3.6 km piped outfall, RO plant and potable water storage tanks.
The facility has a seawater intake and pumping system which has a screening and filtration system. In order to ensure the seawater is of a suitably high quality for use in the RO Plant, the pre-treatment is composed of coagulation, dosing and flocculation, high-rate Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) and Dual Media Filters (DMF).
