The Arroyo Culebro Cuenca Baja WWTP applies sludge co-digestion processes by which it increases its normal electricity production by 40% to treat wastewater from the municipalities of Getafe, Pinto, and Fuenlabrada.
The Cuenca Media-Alta del Arroyo Culebro WWTP treats wastewater from Leganés, Fuenlabrada, Humanes and Parla.
It has an advanced tertiary treatment system, the latest in Europe, which, by means of processes such as ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis, is capable of supplying 12,400 m3 per day of high quality reclaimed water.
This WWTP also has a wastewater reclamation station (ERAR) at its facilities, which is capable of sending reclaimed water for the irrigation of parks and gardens to the municipalities of Getafe, Fuenlabrada, Parla, Humanes, Alcorcón and Pinto, and, in the future, also to Leganés and Rivas-Vaciamadrid
