Salou saves potable water system to irrigate their gardens with groundwater

Salou. Costa Dorada. The City of Salou, through the Municipal Water Service that manages Sorea, has launched this August, the irrigation of green spaces through their drinking water from wells. This system allows a substantial saving of water suitable for potable use. The investment is over € 450,000 and has involved the construction of a warehouse of 500,000 liters, which can be powered from drinking well water or recycled water from treatment plant of Vila-Seca and Salou. In addition, facilities have been constructed water disinfection, ensuring that irrigation water is correct and sanitary distribution pipes is maintained in good sanitary conditions. The water from wells can be used also with the appropriate treatment, such as alternative emergency supply of drinking water, so that it provides a local resource in an emergency. The municipalities of Vila-Seca and Salou, sharing the water distribution system, are thus a set of actions aimed at the use of alternative water resources. Currently in Salou, Sorea company, works in the execution of works such as expanding the network of non-potable water irrigation, creating new connections for city services with groundwater, among other actions to optimize water resources of the municipality.
