Egypt’s record-breaking wastewater treatment facility
The Bahr El Baqar wastewater treatment plant is located in the northern governorate of Port Said and has a daily output capacity of 5.6 million cubic meters. It is a joint venture between the Arab Contractors Company and Orascom Construction.
The plant is the world’s largest of its kind, holding three Guinness World Records:
- The largest water treatment facility, processing 64.8 cubic meters per second
- The largest sludge treatment plant
- The largest single-operator ozone generating plant
Dextra is proud to contribute to this project by supplying Rolltec rebar couplers for the reinforcement of the plant’s concrete structures.
Rolltec is a CARES-approved, rolled parallel-threaded mechanical splicing system designed for connecting concrete reinforcing bars from Ø12 to 50 mm (ASTM #4 to #18). It offers fast and easy preparation and installation on-site.
