The proposals would see the existing sludge treatment facility in Daldowie upgraded with state-of-the-art technology; .the investment will see the construction of a bioresource treatment centre on land adjacent to the existing sludge treatment facility at Daldowie.

The new centre will replace ageing assets at the site with modern technology designed to treat bioresource from households across Scotland's Central Belt to an extremely high quality standard, as well as accommodating planned growth, greatly improving carbon efficiency and reducing operating costs.

Scottish Water Project Lead, Fraser Simpson, said:

"This is one of the most significant investments Scottish Water has undertaken, and it is vital that local residents and stakeholders have the opportunity to find out more about our proposals and share their views.

"The new bioresource treatment centre at Daldowie will replace ageing infrastructure with modern, innovative technology that will dramatically reduce carbon emissions, generate renewable energy and produce a high-quality product that can be recycled to agricultural land.

“We encourage anyone with an interest to come along to one of our information events, where our project team will be on hand to answer questions and hear feedback."

The company is holding a drop-in public consultation event later this month and a second event will be held in August, with a planning application expected to be submitted later in the year. Attendees will be able to find out more about the plans, meet the project team, ask questions and share feedback.
