Die Mersey sauber halten

As part of Liverpool WwTw AMP5 mains project – ‘keeping the Mersey clean’, Sandon Docks (Liverpool) is undergoing substantial refurbishment work. A new and longer outfall pipe has been installed and is already being used to disperse water further into the middle of the estuary, away from the banks of the river where bird habitats can sometimes be found. United Utilities is also building a £200m extension to the existing waste water treatment complex that will help the continued rejuvenation of the River Mersey keeping the waterfront clean for generations to come.

Die Lösung

Viking Johnson has supplied Large Diameter Dedicated couplings, Flange Adaptors and QuickFit Flange Adaptors of sizes varying from 300mm to 2200mm for this project. United Utilities sought to use products that would last the lifespan of the project; Viking Johnson’s 50 years design life expectancy of products, was a perfect match.

The project is ongoing and is expected to be completed by Spring 2016 and will play a significant role in improving water quality of the River Mersey. A clean River Mersey will help with regeneration of Liverpool’s economy, helping to attract tourists and businesses to the city’s waterfront.
