Page 51 - Aqualia MRSC 2015

The mayor of Puente Genil inaugurated the new San Pancracio deposit built by Aqualia. This deposit
has two vessels, each with a storage capacity of 4,500 m3, something that is justified both by technical
regulations and maintenance to avoid the absence of flow. This increase in capacity helps to avoid
supply disruptions by solving pressure problems and it could have the potential to supply a population
of more than 30,000 people for a few days.

Meanwhile, the following measures will be carried out:

Aqualia is to build the new wastewater treatment plant at Albuñol in the Costa Tropical of Granada.
The project to build the sewer mains and the new treatment plant, which will provide a service to the
14,645 people living in Albuñol in the Costa Tropical of Granada, has been awarded by the Council for
the Environment and Territorial Planning to the joint venture made up of Aqualia and FCC Construcción.
The project, due to be completed in the next 2 years, is worth 3.6 million euros.
The works will entail building a WWTP that will treat wastewater from the towns of Albuñol, La Rábita
and Pozuelo. It also includes the construction of new pumping stations in El Pozuelo and La Rábita
and their corresponding impulsion pipelines and a WPS to which the pipes from the towns will be
connected and that will send the wastewater to the treatment plant.

WHAT ADVANTAGES DOES PUBLIC-
PRIVATE COLLABORATION HAVE FOR
THE WATER CYCLE?

It enables projects to be carried out in a shorter
space of time and with cost savings, taking
advantage of the technical knowledge and
experience of companies.
