The action aims to reduce inputs of organic matter and inorganic nutrients currently discharged to Lake Albufera of Valencia. These inputs originate as a result of discharges of stormwater from the western collector located in the northwest of Albufera and from the pollution that the irrigation infrastructure receives as it passes through the towns, and whose surpluses reach Albufera.
This activity has a dual purpose. On the one hand, it aims to achieve an efficient reuse of effluent from the waste water treatment plant of Albufera Sur for irrigation, and secondly, to improve the quantity and quality of water contributions to Lake Albufera. To achieve this goal a tertiary treatment is implemented at the plant and a green filter that improves the quality of effluents intended for lake Albufera.
STATE OF THE ACTION:
The work is in progress.
The action aims to improve the water quality of the Sueca ditches by intercepting waste water discharges and disconnecting them from the network of ditches. This way, the effluent generated is reused efficiently by the waste water treatment plant of Sueca by its discharge into the Major ditch, and thus increase the susceptible irrigated area and change the crop types to be irrigated.
The aim of this action is to provide new water resources from the reuse of effluent from the water treatment plant of Pinedo for its use in irrigation of agricultural crops and as additional water to the Albufera of Valencia, with appropriate quality for each use. The action consists of a pipeline infrastructure that enables connection from waste water treatment plant to the irrigation areas, and a green filter for the reduction of nutrients, with their associated pipeline, for renaturalisation of the waters that cannot be used in irrigation and supply them to the Albufera.
The regions of Vinalopó and Alicantí in the province of Alicante, have had major water shortages for years. This deficit is being covered by the overexploitation of aquifers, several of them have already reached totally unsustainable levels. In coastal regions, where demand is mostly urban, the situation can be successfully resolved by the desalination of seawater, but in the interior regions, where demand is mainly agrarian and stands at quite high levels above sea level, the contribution of resources from other basins is necessary.
The works included in this action correspond to regulation and distribution works needed to supply the towns of San Juan, Alicante and San Vicente de Raspeig with desalinated water from the desalination plant of Mutxamell. The construction of three regulation tanks have been planned for this with storage capacity for 33,000 m3, 4 drives and 17 km of pipelines.
STATE OF THE ACTION:
The initiative is divided into two project divisions:
- The works of division No. 1 are in progress.
-The works of division No.2 are pending tender.
The infrastructures included in this action include regulation and distribution works needed to supply drinking water from new desalination plant of Mutxamel to the towns of Campello and Mutxamell (Alicante) and connect the system with the Rabasa-Amadorio pipeline which currently is in operation (See the data sheet of the action Rabasa-Fenollar-Amadorio pipeline). The works included in this action can be summarised in the construction of 3 tanks with a total volume of 16,000 m3, 4 pumping stations and 26 km of pipelines.
STATE OF THE ACTION:
Works pending award.
The aim of this action is the provision of new resources to ensure supply of the L'ALACANTI area. This new source of supply frees underground resources of overexploited aquifers and allows, in emergency situations, to support the supply of the Marina Baja region. To achieve this goal a new seawater desalination plant is being built in the town of Mutxamel with a production capacity of 50,000 m3/day, extendible to 80,000 m3/day.
STATE OF THE ACTION:
Works received.
The purpose of the action is to cover part of the water deficit that is expected in the short to medium term as a result of population growth and industrial expansion, of the town of Sagunto and the rest of the district of Camp de Morvedre. To achieve this goal a new desalination plant has been designed with a production capacity of 22,900 m3/day, which is used for domestic and industrial use. The plant is located next to the new combined cycle power plant of the company Unión Fenosa Generación in the port of Sagunto.
The action includes the necessary distribution works to supply water from the desalination plant in Oropesa to the Benicassim supply system.
STATE OF THE ACTION:
Work underway
