ITT Industries Announces Wastewater Contract with Qatar

ITT Industries, Inc., has been selected to design, supply and supervise the development of a complete sewage system at the Doha South Sewage Treatment Works in Qatar. Tayseer Contracting Company W.L.L., the successful bidder for the wastewater plant, awarded ITT Industries' Sanitaire unit a $12.7 million contract for the project.

The upgrade and extension of the current facility in Doha will manage the flow from approximately 500,000 people and will enhance the local urban environment.

"This project demonstrates our market leadership and expertise in providing complete wastewater solutions to the municipal and industrial treatment markets anywhere in the world," said Robert Ayers, President of ITT Industries Fluid Technology. "Our products and design capabilities strengthen the value of the solutions we provide to our customers, and contribute to our ongoing growth in the wastewater treatment market."

The new sewage system in Qatar will reduce the current odor releases and significantly improve the quality of effluent, which is used for municipal irrigation within the city of Doha. To meet customer needs, ITT will design the complete sewage works, supply all mechanical equipment, and supervise the installation and mechanical start of the plant.
