These solutions enable wastewater to be treated to a satisfactory level for use in: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">agricultural irrigation,<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">urban watering and cleaning, or even<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">groundwater recharge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By increasing the available resource at a controlled cost, the reuse of treated wastewater is particularly well suited to regions affected by droughts and water shortages. It provides an effective response to local tensions and conflicts over water use, by reducing the amount of water drawn from the natural environment.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">At Stereau, we implement modular, proven technologies for the reuse of purified water that can be adapted to any need. The tertiary refining processes used vary according to the intended use and required water quality. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">UV disinfection may be all that&#8217;s needed, especially when secondary treatment includes membrane filtration such as AquaRM\u00ae.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">More advanced technologies such as reverse osmosis or the elimination of micropollutants using the CarboPlus\u00ae process can also be proposed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-53cd62f4\" data-id=\"53cd62f4\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dfdf671 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dfdf671\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>In 2009, Stereau designed and built Europe&#8217;s first wastewater treatment plant in Vathia-Gonia to reuse almost all of its treated wastewater for agricultural irrigation. <\/em><em>With a capacity of 200,000 population equivalents, the Vathia-Gonia wastewater treatment plant uses Stereau&#8217;s patented Aqua-RM\u00ae membrane filtration process, complemented by ultraviolet disinfection.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The plant produces 500 m3\/h of treated wastewater, meeting the water needs of farmers and preserving drinking water for domestic consumption.<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3da4b87 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3da4b87\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/vathia_gonia_chypre2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5962\" alt=\"Vathia-Gonia wastewater treatment plant (Nicosia -
