Reclaimed water
Reclamation provides water for secondary uses or for its return to public waterways and the natural environment. In these cases, drinking-quality water is not required, but it needs treating to protect aquatic ecosystems and prevent pollution to rivers and aquifers.
The Hidrogea wastewater treatment plants reclaim over 8,000,000 m3/year for subsequent reuse.
Reclaimed water is reused to irrigate Cartagena farmland. Thanks to this reuse, we save drinking water for human use.
