Ash Pond with Water Recovery System Commissioned at Bakreswar
The engineered structure is constructed over a huge area of 215 acres for the disposal and proper utilization of fly ash.
The Water and Effluent Treatment Business’ Ash Pond with Water Recovery Project at Bakreswar Thermal Power Plant, Birbhum, was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of West Bengal, Ms. Mamata Banerjee on January 3, 2019. A critical piece of infrastructure, it is an engineered structure constructed over a huge area of 215 acres for the disposal and proper utilization of fly ash. The project team from WET took up the massive earthen embankment construction running up to 4 km by using 19 lakh cum of earth material. The most critical challenge faced by project team was sourcing of 6 lakh cum of borrow earth and doing the slope concreting over HDPE across 1.53 lakh square meters to mitigate concerns regarding leachate disposal from the ponds. With the construction of this sustainable infrastructure, direct contact of ash slurry is eliminated thereby preventing ground water contamination. The horizontal and vertical flow of water from fly ash is controlled by using filter media material, vertical sand chimney and horizontal sand blanket instead of conventional low permeable clay. Team L&T was commended by the client for completing the embankment dyke with cost optimization against the utilization of fly ash thereby ensuring protection to environment. The allied structures consist of a recovery pump house, decantation system and a 20 KM ash slurry and recirculation pipeline.
