For smaller camps and facilities, a 50 m³/day containerized wastewater treatment system offers a compact and cost‑effective way to meet discharge requirements with minimal civil works. In Jeddah, Enviromatch supplied a 50 m³/day BioMatch T‑MBBR plant in a single 20 ft HQ container, delivering complete treatment from inlet to disinfected effluent. This solution complements Enviromatch’s broader range of wastewater treatment systems and containerized systems for projects across Saudi Arabia.
Project overview: 50 m³/day containerized wastewater treatment in Jeddah
The PN. 23006 project is a self‑contained 50 m³/day BioMatch T‑MBBR wastewater treatment system installed in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The plant is designed to treat domestic and camp wastewater in locations where a small footprint, rapid installation and easy relocation are critical.
All main process units are integrated inside a 20 ft HQ shipping container, transforming a standard container into a plug‑and‑play sewage treatment plant. This approach reduces on‑site construction and allows the unit to be delivered, connected and commissioned in a short time frame.
Process design inside the 20 ft HQ container
Despite its compact size, the 50 m³/day containerized wastewater treatment system provides a complete treatment line. The main process tanks and equipment inside the 20 ft HQ container include:
- Anoxic tank for denitrification and initial biological treatment using the BioMatch T‑MBBR process.
- Aeration tank for aerobic degradation of organic load, supplied by a regenerative blower.
- Clarifier tank to separate biomass and suspended solids from the treated water.
- Up‑flow automatic media filter to polish effluent and remove remaining fine solids.
- Chlorine contact tank for final disinfection and compliance with microbiological standards.
This configuration provides a multi‑barrier treatment chain suitable for small camps and remote sites while maintaining a very small footprint.
Mechanical, safety and control features
To support reliable and safe operation, the container is equipped with corrosion‑resistant access structures and essential mechanical equipment. FRP handrails, FRP ladders and FRP grating walkways are installed to provide safe access around key areas, improving operator safety and reducing maintenance.
The unit includes a regenerative blower for aeration and an electrical oil‑free air compressor for instrumentation and pneumatic devices. A chlorine dosing system feeds disinfectant to the chlorine contact tank, while a static screen and hopper remove coarse solids in the inlet section. All major equipment is integrated into a PLC control system, allowing automated operation and straightforward monitoring.
Benefits of a 50 m³/day containerized T‑MBBR system
A 50 m³/day containerized wastewater treatment system provides a flexible solution for small‑to‑medium facilities that need robust sewage treatment without a large civil‑built plant. Key benefits include:
- Compact footprint: All process units in a single 20 ft HQ container, ideal for tight or temporary sites.
- Fast deployment: Factory‑built and pre‑assembled, requiring limited on‑site works before startup.
- Scalability: Additional 50 m³/day modules can be added to increase capacity as demand grows.
- Simplified O&M: Standardized equipment and PLC automation reduce training and maintenance complexity.
These advantages make the PN. 23006 plant a suitable choice for camps, industrial facilities and remote locations in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
Talk to Enviromatch about compact containerized wastewater treatment
Enviromatch designs and supplies containerized BioMatch T‑MBBR systems from small 25–50 m³/day units up to large modular plants. For projects requiring compact, factory‑built wastewater treatment systems in Saudi Arabia or other regions, the 50 m³/day concept can be adapted to different influent and effluent requirements.
