Project overview

The Caloocan–Malabon–Navotas (CAMANA) Water Reclamation Facility is a large-scale wastewater infrastructure development in Metro Manila, Philippines.

The project involves the rehabilitation and expansion of the existing Dagat-Dagatan wastewater treatment plant, increasing its design capacity from 26,000 to 205,000 m³/day.

The upgraded facility uses a modified Ludzack–Ettinger activated sludge process, combining biological treatment stages to improve the removal of organic pollutants and nitrogen compounds.

The development is designed to strengthen wastewater treatment services across South Caloocan, Malabon and Navotas, while reducing pollution discharged through local waterways towards Manila Bay.
