Description

The Barcelos WWTP, which came into operation in 1999, was built to treat domestic and industrial wastewater from the municipality of Barcelos. Has a capacity to handle a flow of 274,75 l/s, which corresponds to an equivalent population of 133 250 inhabitants. The aim of the project is to analyze, from a technical and economic point of view, the best treatment alternative for the remodeling of WWTP, and to develop the corresponding detailed design in order to comply with its discharge license.
