Location: Selangor, Malaysia
Client: SPLASH Sdn. Bhd.
Consultant: SMHB Sdn. Bhd.
Capacity: 800MLD
Commencement Date: May 2001
Completion Date: March 2006

The Sungai Selangor Phase 3 Water Works is located to the south of the existing Phase 2 Treatment Works. It is implemented in two stages, Stage 1 and Stage 2, which operates independently each with a nominal work output of 400MLD.

The water treatment structures for each stage include an aerator, a chemical mixing chamber, clarification tanks, filters, chlorine contact tanks and clear water tanks. There is also a chemical building, chlorine building, administration building, wash water and sludge disposal works, and all associated roads and services.

The raw water is extracted from the river intake located upstream of the existing Phase 1 and Phase 2 river intakes, on the left bank of Sg. Selangor. It is pumped to the treatment inlet and discharged over a weir into a cascaded aerator; at the outlet of the aerator, the water is dosed for pre-chlorination and then passed on to the chemical mixing chamber where it is dosed for coagulation and flocculation. The conditioned water is passed through the clarifiers and the rapid gravity filters. Chlorine and fluoride are added before the treated water flows into the clear water tanks.

Sludge from the clarifiers flows to the thickening tanks via a holding tank. Filter waste wash water is collected in wash water recovery tanks; the supernatant is returned to the works inlet and the sludge pumped to the thickening tanks again where the sludge is mixed with the clarifier sludge. Facilities are provided for the thickening tank supernatant to be discharged into the overflow system. There is also a mechanical dewatering of the thickened sludge from the thickening tanks. The thickened sludge from the thickening tanks is pumped directly to the sludge lagoons.

The plant is designed such that the treatment works is operated with minimum personnel. All preparation of chemicals for use during the next 24 hours is carried out during the 8 hour day shift. Routine plant maintenance is generally carried out on weekdays in the daytime. The plant is capable of unmanned operation at all other times under normal operating conditions. in the event of failure of the duty dosing plant, the standby plant operates automatically to take over the functions of the failed duty plant.

There is a Command Centre in the Administration Building; facilities are provided there for monitoring the operation of the pumping stations and the water treatment works. Facilities are also provided for the control of the raw water and treated water pumps, selected valves and penstocks, chemical dosing, etc.

The scope of works covers the supply, installation, testing and commissioning of the instrumentation systems. The installation includes the following: -

Intake

  • Supply, install and commission all instruments for the Intake Works.

Treatment

  • Supply, install, connect, test, calibrate and commission all instrument measurements of levels, pressures, flows and water quality throughout the treatment works for display on the local control panels and also in the Command Centre of the Administration Building.
  • Design, install, connect, test, calibrate and commission instrumentation panels in the treatment plant.
  • Supply spare parts and consumables for the entire installation.
  • All associated cabling and connections.

Balancing Reservoir

  • Supply, install, test, calibrate and commission all instrument measurements of levels and flows through radio-link telemetry system for display on CitectCitectSCADA system in Command Centre of the Administration Building.
  • All associated cabling and connections.

The CitectSCADA system consists of 3 main locations - Intake Works, Treatment Works and Bukit Tadun Balancing Reservoir. These locations are linked by redundant radio telemetry system.

The PLC-based Outstations (O/S) transmit all process data, events, alarms and commands to the CitectSCADA server and further shared among all the other operator MMIs and engineering workstations. The PLC-based intelligent outstations perform the role of local controller units for the plant sequential control functions. All CitectSCADA nodes and PLC control nodes are linked to the same backbone to ensure data integrity as well as providing a platform to make possible scalable architecture features i.e. scalable from existing system size up to possible expansion of system in stage 2 (future). The redundant CitectSCADA nodes (Data Server) can also serve as one of the main operators MMI or engineering stations.

The complete integrated CitectSCADA system is built around 100Mbit/s Ethernet ring redundancy fibre optic backbone that accomodates 100% redundancy in inter-equipment communications.

The computer terminals and all outstations are provided with backup power supply through Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems. The battery banks are capable of providing backup power to the master station equipment for 4 hours while the remaining outstations have 3 hours of backup power after loss of incoming power supply.

The CitectSCADA system is able to adjust all set points and timers in the local PLCs or upload new programs into them, if necessary.

Local Control Panels (LCP) and Supervisory Panels house the outstations and perform the automatic sequence control functions for the processes that these LCPs or Supervisory Panels are designed for.

The whole CitectSCADA system is designed such that with the loss of the host computers or sub-master stations, it does not impair the efficiency of the system to carry out the local automatic and sequence controls via these LCPs or Supervisory Panels.
