Al Mahsamma project is a milestone in Egypt’s water security agenda and represents a qualitative leap in the field of agricultural wastewater treatment across Africa. The 1 million m3/day state-of-the-art mega national project inaugurated today will contribute to the cultivation of 70.000 acres in Sinai. Al Mahsamma is part of Egypt’s progressive and multipronged approach to ensure the country’s water security through wastewater treatment, desalination, and preservation of natural water resources. The project worth USD100 million has been developed by the joint venture comprised of Metito, the multinational global provider of intelligent water management and alternative energy solutions, and Hassan Allam Construction, Egypt’s leading engineering, construction and infrastructure company, under the supervision of the Armed Forces Engineering Authority.

Eng.Karim Madwar, Managing Director at Metito Africa said: “Metito is honored to play its part in this world-class mega national project located in the highly strategic east of the Suez Canal area. In this project, we make use of the latest technologies for the treatment of agricultural drainage to produce suitable water for irrigation and land reclamation, following the highest quality standard and specs set by the Egyptian government”. Madwar further explained that all Metito projects are equipped with laboratories for on-site water analysis and quality testing round the clock supervised by dedicated experts.

Madwar added: “Al Mahsamma plant will significantly contribute to combating water scarcity in the country and will have a resounding impact on Egypt’s water security agenda, transforming the scope of wastewater treatment across Africa”. The plant will contribute to the irrigation of 70,000 acres of land in Sinai, as part of the government’s efforts to develop the region by creating sustainable urban communities and job opportunities in the area. As the global economy navigates its way through the adverse impact of the coronavirus pandemic across all business, the Al Mahsamma project marks a significant achievement for the Egyptian government and the wider African region, demonstrated sustained commitment to development in the water sector.
