Metito has installed an environmentally friendly waste water treatment works for the new Manar Mall shopping complex in Ras Al Khaimah.

The multi-million dirham project will treat all sewage and other waste water on site and then use the treated water to irrigate and landscape the extensive grounds of the latest mall in the UAE.

Located on the RAs Al Khaimah waterfront there will be extensive landscaping for the 45,000 square meter mall and in the 2,200 space car park.

"We are proud to have been asked to provide the waste water treatment solutions for this exciting new development - among the first major shopping malls to be built to international standards in the northern emirates" said Metito Group Managing Director Mutaz Ghandour.

"The system we have installed will treat all sewage and waste water on site and this will then be used for irrigation and landscaping on the site to ensure the most effective use of water resources for Manar Mall".

The scope of work for Metito on this project was turnkey design, engineering, fabrication, supply, installation commissioning, full operation and maintenance of the works.

Key features of the packaged sewage treatment plant include a capacity to treat up to 300 cubic meters of waste per day.
