The New Delta Irrigation Water Treatment Plant

The New Delta Irrigation Water Treatment Plant has been declared the world's largest water treatment facility by Guinness World Records (GWR). The plant secured four GWR global records, including the world's largest water treatment facility, the most capacious and operationally robust water treatment plant, the largest area for epoxy coating in structures, and the biggest sludge treatment plant globally.

The plant has a remarkable production capacity of 7.5 million m³/day of agricultural drainage water, which plays a crucial role in the reclamation and development of 2 million acres in the western Delta region. Spanning an expansive area exceeding 320,000 m², the plant operates at an impressive capacity of 86.8 m³/second and boasts a substantial sludge treatment capability of 670.01 kg/s.

Additionally, this project stands as one of the most significant sustainability initiatives worldwide, incorporating state-of-the-art sustainable technologies and solutions. Completed within a record-setting time of 24 months, the plant serves as a pivotal component of Egypt's national water resources plan, aiming to ensure water security for the country and foster prosperity and sustainability for future generations.
