Phu Do Wastewater Collection and Treatment System

Projects

The project involves the construction of a wastewater collection system and Phu Do Wastewater Treatment Plant in the S3 drainage basin (2,485 ha), with a treatment capacity of 84,000 m³/day. The project is implemented under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Build-Lease-Transfer (BLT) model, scheduled for 2024–2028. This project represents a major leap in urban wastewater management planning for Hanoi, contributing to the creation of a green symbol for a modern living environment.

Key Advantages

1. Strategic Infrastructure Connectivity

The collection system serves a 2,485 ha drainage basin, including the districts of Cau Giay, former Nam Tu Liem, and Bac Tu Liem, effectively addressing stormwater drainage and centralized wastewater treatment, while reducing the load on the existing combined sewer system

2. Green Symbol for a Modern City

The plant presents an image of a “bridge between humans and nature”, bringing the infrastructure closer to residents through green architecture and modern PPP treatment technologies

3. Enhancing Quality of Life and Sustainable Development

Once completed, with a treatment capacity of 84,000 m³/day, the project will improve water quality, reduce flooding, enhance public health, and develop urban landscape. The BLT mechanism ensures long-term, professional operation

Design & Layout

The Phu Do Wastewater Treatment Plant is designed following the concept of “Urban Green Purification”, integrating modern engineering technology with environmental landscape design. The treatment facility is centrally located on a site of approximately 2.5 ha, with pumping stations and a network of D300–D1500mm pipes extending roughly 18 km across the S3 drainage basin. The layout ensures rational allocation among the biological treatment area, collection system, pumping stations, separation wells, manholes, and green spaces. Beyond treatment efficiency, the design emphasizes operational flow, ease of maintenance, and harmony with the surrounding urban environment.
