dadruid has been coverd in the press on several occassions, looks like it will be some time though before a solution is implemented

Below from Emirates Today Press report March 2007
Quote:
Emirates Today reported in Feb 2007 that several residents of China Town at the International City had complained about an unbearable smell from the treatment plant in Al Awir that gave them sleepless nights.

About 700 tonnes of sludge is generated each day following treatment of dirty water. The sludge is left uncovered, resulting in a foul smell.

By the end of the year, facilities will be created to either incinerate the sludge or treat it said Talib Abdul Karim Julfar, Director of the Drainage and Irrigation Department.
