The expansion of the Alice Water Treatment and Wastewater Treatment Works is a giant leap for the community and the University of Fort Hare. This project will boost the area’s water supply, letting it serve 38,000 people daily, while also creating 99 jobs for locals. With a strong focus on public health and sustainable growth, the initiative brings hope and new opportunities to Alice. It’s a shining example of teamwork, showing how government and community can work together to build a brighter future for everyone.
South Africa’s Athlone Wastewater Treatment Works transformation project is a groundbreaking initiative that is transforming the way waste is treated. With a substantial capital investment of R4 billion and executed in phases, the project aims to enhance the quality of treated effluent, reduce odours, and ensure a sustainable future for the facility. Phase 2 focuses on enhancing capacity and community impact, including addressing the odour issue, improving sludge management, and refining the inflow system. The project sets a benchmark for sustainable future wastewater management and promises a future where waste treatment aligns with the highest environmental standards.
