Kitchener Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades
Status: construction
Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) study for upgrading the Kitchener Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) located in the City of Kitchener. The proposed improvements focus on upgrading the WWTP’s treatment process, as well as for the provision of standby power to provide security to ensure essential operations will continue in the event of a power failure. The proposed upgrades are part of the last of three WWTP upgrade phases and are intended to improve effluent quality and operational reliability without an increase to the existing WWTP’s rated capacity. The proposed works will ensure better effluent quality and odour management, provide reliable, long-term operation and performance, decommission existing biosolids storage lagoons and improve process efficiency (replace aging equipment).
