  • Water Holding Structures

Mitsubishi & Toyo Thai Corporation Ltd were awarded this Qatar Reverse Osmosis project with a value of 502 million USD and the first of its kind on a large scale. TTCL & Qatar General Electric & Water Corp. recommended Xypex coating solution as the primary waterproofing system for the entire potable water reservoir. The project has the capacity of delivering 164,000 cubic meters per day of potable water to Doha. Xypex Concentrate was applied as a two-coat application on all internal walls and deck areas of the East and West potable water reservoirs, approximately 32,000 square meters. The 24,000 tie holes and joint areas were protected with Xypex Patch’n Plug and Concentrate Dry-Pac solution.
