               B.3.0 DESCRIPTION OF PROCESS

                A description of the process or storage involving the hazardous substances
               and an indication of the conditions under which it is normally held;

               The plant is situated about two (2) km from Segamat town. The plant is designed to
               supply 45 MLD (KT1: 13.1 MLD, KT2: 31.36 MLD) of treated water to industrial and
               residential areas particularly within Segamat.

               The KT1 & KT2 WTP receives raw water intake from Segamat River. The following
               Table B.3.0 summarizes the main elements of the water treatment process and their
               functions:

                                  Table B.3.0: Main Elements of Water Treatment Process


               The three main activities conducted at the KT1 & KT2 WTP works are:
                   •  Water treatment process;
                   •  Storage of chemicals used for facilitating the process; and
                   •  Operation of utility systems or facilitating the process.

               All the chemicals are stored  and  prepared at  the  chemical  building before being
               delivered to the points of dosing while chlorine is withdrawn from the drums (KT2
               WTP) and cylinders (KT1 WTP) which is stored in the Chlorine room.

               Generic process diagram of water treatment process is provided in Appendix B1.
