Wastewater treatment plants

Wastewater treatment plants are an essential part of civilised living, however they have the potential to generate high levels of noise over large distances due to much of the equipment required to be outside. Nevertheless there are ways to reduce noise through the use of barriers or enclosures.

Co-generation plants are now common at these facilities, which is terrific for the environment, but introduce another major noise source that often requires noise controls.

Day Design has provided acoustical assessments for Sydney Water on sites all over Sydney and has extensive experience in the design of noise controls to suit these particular noise sources.
