The contract of the expansion of the Valdebebas Wastewater Treatment Plant includes the complete renovation of the pre-treatment and desanding-degreasing with construction of an additional line.

It is designed to comply with the discharge limits in a non-sensitive area, as the whole of the Jarama river basin is considered as such, and thanks to the extension, the facilities have been upgraded by means of a complete overhaul of their biological treatment. Thanks to this, the discharge levels have been reduced to lower limits than those foreseen in the initial design and the discharge of nitrogen and phosphorous has been eliminated, as required by the regulations.
