Water and wastewater collection and treatment

Combining a unique blend of planning, engineering and management experience to assist with water supply and treatment. Assessing the development against economic, social and environmental needs of clients, authorities and the community to strategically plan for a sustainable water cycle.

We provide market-leading solutions in pump station design and sewer rising main, gravity systems design, network modelling, combined systems, process improvement, wastewater treatment and disposal. Combining considerable experience assessing impacts on waterways and marine environments, with the development of wastewater management strategies and design solutions, we have expertise in all phases of wastewater treatment, reuse and disposal projects. Using key skills to deliver sustainable water cycle services, such as:

• Land use planning
• Environmental science
• Hydrology
• Water balance reviews.

We help our clients with strategic planning / grant application support, conceptual design, impact assessment, process design, detailed design, tender preparation and construction management. Our team of qualified and highly experienced process engineers, hydraulic engineers, planners, environmental scientists and project managers works collaboratively with clients such as water authorities, local government, infrastructure developers and contractors, land developers, and from the agricultural, mining and manufacturing sectors.

Our expertise covers:

• Strategic planning for a sustainable water cycle through consideration of economic, social and environmental needs of a community
• The management of catchment and receiving waters
• Water harvesting, treatment, storage and distribution
• Wastewater and stormwater collection, distribution, storage, treatment, disposal and reuse
• Water sensitive urban design and modelling
• Options analysis including selection, delivery and commissioning of technology and process components
• Infrastructure asset management for long-term sustainable service delivery
• Electrical and mechanical design including PLC control, instrumentation and control systems
• Life cycle analysis, energy and process efficiency and greenhouse gas assessments.

We have a strong capability in modelling, planning and designing water distribution systems, including:

• Distribution system modelling and optimisation
• Pipeline design and construction supervision
• Pump station design
• Storm flow analysis
• Reticulation modelling
• Application of modelling packages such as MUSIC, MEDLI etc.
• Asset management
• Engineering and process design of storage, pipelines, pumping and treatment systems
• Process mapping and process improvement scenarios
• Risk assessment such as HAZOP, CHAIR sessions based on nodal analysis
• Preparation of development application and associated documentation including effective stakeholder liaison
• Infrastructure asset management to model and plan for the financial physical and human resources needed to sustain service delivery.
