Introduction to Operation OASIS

The massive waste water problem that currently pollutes our bathing waters costing £billions to process throughout the world can be used to irrigate and reforest desert coastlines to induce rainfall.

Our aim is to use the return ballast capacity of super crude carriers which currently transport sea water half way around the world at great financial and environmental cost. This ballast is discharged into the sea, often introducing invasive marine species which affects the stability of indigenous species of flora and fauna.

The E.U. is legislating against this practice and tanker operators will be forced to seek an alternative.

Operation OASIS offers an exciting opportunity for ballast water. Transporting treated waste water to irrigate and reforest arid coastlines to induce rainfall has to be the way forward.

One tanker loaded with 300000 cubic meters of treated waste water would support 57 hectares of forest for a whole year.

Reclaiming deserts to enable people to feed themselves and grow great forests will offset the carbon emissions from shipping.

With global food shortages upon us we are already feeling the strain on our pockets in the developed world and renewable resources are in rapid decline. Drought is affecting all major food producing countries and wells are running dry. Water scarcity poses major problems for us and our children. We need to act fast in order to avert a major global catastrophe.

When the mighty river Amazon dries up and it's fish stocks die it is time to take stock on how we manage our fragile environment. For more detailed information visit our website and forum at: http://www.operationoasis.com

Tankers que for sewage plant

 
jaxtif — October 25, 2008 — these are the tankers filled with raw sewage water, and standing for minimum 8 hours to empty their tanks in Al Aweer sewage plant.
people will come to know the reason for the Tankers dumping water illegaly by watching this video. I captured it last week. and trust me this video is not from the starting. I ignored 1km of the que and started shooting from the midway. Enjoy!!! AND GOVERNMENT SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT

Dubai sewage production rising

  • United Arab Emirates: Monday, December 10 - 2007 at 17:07

Sewage production in Dubai is increasing by about 25 per cent a year and averages 480,000 cubic metres a day, head of sewage treatment plants in Dubai Municipality Aisha al-Abdooli told MEED's Wastewater Treatment & Reuse 2007 conference in Abu Dhabi.


She said that about 100,000 cubic metres a day of untreated sewage is being delivered in about 3,000 sewage tankers serving housing, industry and labour camps not connected to Dubai's main sewage system.

"The throughput in the Al-Aweer sewage treatment plant compares with its design capacity of 260,000 cubic metres a day," Al-Abdooli said.

One consequence is a deterioration in the quality of treated sewage effluent, she said. About 75 per cent is used in irrigation in Dubai and the rest is dumped in Dubai Creek.
