Planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales de San Shek Wan, Hong Kong

Publicado en agosto 2, 2024marzo 12, 2025 por Kansuda Visesthanakorn

Planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales de San Shek Wan, Hong Kong

El proyecto de la Planta de Tratamiento de Aguas Residuales (PTR) de San Shek Wan en Hong Kong representa un avance significativo para abordar las necesidades de eliminación de aguas residuales de la región de South Lantau. Dado que se prevé que la población de South Lantau crezca, con una población final de aproximadamente 12 600 habitantes para 2039, se prevé que el caudal de aguas residuales aumente a 5800 m³/día. Para ello, se está construyendo un sistema integral de alcantarillado, que incluye un sistema de alcantarillado troncal para la zona de Pui O, una PTR secundaria en San Shek Wan y un sistema de alcantarillado local para Lo Uk.

Un componente crucial de este ambicioso proyecto de infraestructura es el uso de materiales y tecnologías avanzados para garantizar su finalización exitosa y sostenible. Dextra, líder mundial en productos de construcción de ingeniería, ha desempeñado un papel fundamental al suministrar clavos de suelo de polímero reforzado con fibra de vidrio (PRFV) para las obras de excavación y soporte lateral (ELS).

El papel de Clavos de suelo de PRFV en ELS Works

Las obras de excavación y soporte lateral son esenciales para la cimentación y la estabilidad del proyecto. Las exigentes condiciones geotécnicas de Hong Kong, caracterizadas por la complejidad de sus formaciones rocosas y de suelo, exigen el uso de soluciones de refuerzo robustas y fiables. Clavos de suelo de PRFV, proporcionados por Dextra, son ideales para tales condiciones debido a su alta resistencia a la tracción, resistencia a la corrosión y naturaleza liviana.

Los clavos de suelo de PRFV se utilizan para estabilizar taludes y excavaciones, previniendo deslizamientos y la erosión del suelo. Su resistencia a la corrosión es especialmente beneficiosa en entornos expuestos a la humedad y a productos químicos, como las plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales. Esto garantiza una mayor vida útil y menores costos de mantenimiento en comparación con el refuerzo de acero tradicional.

Beneficios de las soluciones GFRP de Dextra

Resistencia a la corrosiónA diferencia del acero, el PRFV no se corroe al exponerse a condiciones ambientales adversas. Esto lo convierte en una excelente opción para las condiciones húmedas y químicamente agresivas presentes en las plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales.
Alta relación resistencia-pesoEl PRFV ofrece una alta resistencia a la tracción comparable a la del acero, pero con un peso mucho menor. Esta facilidad de manejo e instalación se traduce en ahorro de tiempo y mano de obra.
Durabilidad:La longevidad de los clavos de suelo de PRFV garantiza la integridad estructural de la excavación y los sistemas de soporte lateral durante la vida útil prolongada de las plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales.
SostenibilidadAl utilizar PRFV, el proyecto reduce su dependencia del acero, contribuyendo así a prácticas de construcción más sostenibles.

Impacto en el proyecto de descontaminación de aguas residuales de San Shek Wan

La participación de Dextra y la implementación de los anclajes de suelo de PRFV han mejorado significativamente la eficiencia y la sostenibilidad del proyecto de la Planta de Aguas Termostáticas de San Shek Wan. Los materiales avanzados han garantizado que las obras de excavación y soporte lateral no solo sean robustas y fiables, sino también rentables a largo plazo.

Una vez finalizado, las aguas residuales de South Lantau se transportarán a la planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales de nueva construcción para su tratamiento adecuado. El efluente tratado se descargará de forma segura al mar a unos 1,4 km de la costa de South Lantau, garantizando un impacto ambiental mínimo. Este proyecto representa una modernización crucial de la infraestructura que impulsará el crecimiento y el desarrollo de la región, manteniendo altos estándares ambientales y operativos.
