Severn Trent’s Strongford Sewage Treatment Works has benefitted from a structural refurbishment of three concrete sludge storage tanks along with a new primary sludge/surplus sludge thickening facility.
Mott Macdonald and J N Bentley (MMB) have undertaken several capital maintenance projects at Strongford STW, one of which was the sludge buffer scheme. Franklyn Yates Engineering was selected to manufacture and install all process pipework, as well as installation of valves and instrumentation. A detailed breakdown of the project is available under the tasks tab.

FYEL utilised an on-site fabrication area to manufacture all of the stainless steel pipework on site. This method was adopted due to time restraints with the project completion date and also ensured a fast turnaround on all fabricated items.
FYEL worked closely with the MMB project management and design team to bring the project together on time and within budget. FYEL were approached on several occasions to assist with complex design solutions to overcome unforeseen technical problems throughout the project, introducing engineering efficiency’s into the primary design saving the client both on a commercial level and also by making significant reductions to the programme completion date.
MMB and FYEL worked very well as a team, utilising one another’s experience, technical abilities and expertise in waste water treatment.
