The Bryn Estyn Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is greater Hobart’s primary source of drinking water.
For the past two years TasWater has been upgrading and expanding the plant to provide a reliable supply of 160 million litres of high quality drinking water per day to around 200,000 customers.
Objectives of the Bryn Estyn WTP Upgrade Project included improving the operational efficiency of the plant by increasing capacity and modernising infrastructure.
The modern water control infrastructure integrated into this project included 21 custom AWMA TLF Penstocks, manufactured from grade 316 stainless steel with rising spindles under manual operation. Also supplied were two actuated, downwards opening DLF Penstocks, manufactured from grade 316 stainless steel.
This project is the single largest infrastructure project undertaken by TasWater and will provide consistent water quality to meet forecasted demand for the next 30-50 years.
