Technical study of the industrial wastewater treatment in Tunisia
Technical study for the water sanitation of industrial zones in Tunisia:
ONAS entrusted TESCO, in consortium with the German engineering firm FICHTNER, a cleaning mission of eleven existing and planned industrial areas in the governorates of Sfax, Sousse, Monastir, Bizerta and Beja.
As part of this mission, the following steps were carried out:
– A diagnosis of the current status of existing infrastructure
– A measurement campaign for the quantity and quality of waste water generated by industrial units
– Assessment of the condition and the efficiency of water treatment facilities
– The development of technical, legal and economic scenarios for better drainage, treatment and disposal of industrial waste.
The project was successfully achieved and appreciated by ONAS and KfW donor.
