Kuwait’s Ministry of Public Works has commissioned Dar to provide design review and construction supervision services for the transformational South Al-Mutlaa Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and related works.
Located on a 1.1 million m² site in northern South Al-Mutlaa City and with a construction value of $500 million, the project is a key component of Kuwait’s national water sustainability strategy. The facility will treat 400,000 m³/day of wastewater, with a peak capacity of 600,000 m³/day, producing ultra-filtered treated effluent that meets the highest regional standards.
The plant will incorporate a range of advanced and sustainable technologies, including:
-
High-performance treatment processes using biological treatment, ultra-filtration and UV disinfection
-
Self-sufficient energy systems supported by anaerobic digestion and biogas recovery
-
Integrated renewable energy systems to enhance long-term sustainability
-
Comprehensive supporting infrastructure, including utility connections and automated control systems
The contract further reinforces Dar’s strong track record in the water and wastewater sector. Building on recent achievements such as Kuwait’s 700,000 m³/day Umm Al Hayman Wastewater Treatment Plant, Dar continues to expand its role in delivering major infrastructure projects that support environmental sustainability and national development goals, the company said.
