In 2018, Eau de Paris, France’s leading public water company, commissioned Stereau, a subsidiary of Saur, to modernize the Orly (Val-de-Marne) drinking water production plant and equip it with a new treatment process, independent of the current one, capable of eliminating micropollutants.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Orly drinking water production plant is an essential link in the supply of drinking water to the capital, particularly in view of changing needs (population density) and changing resources (quality, adaptation to climate change). The plant, which treats water taken from the Seine, can produce between 90,000 and 300,000 m3\/day of drinking water, depending on demand.<\/p>\n

Sized to produce 150,000 m3\/day of drinking water, the new treatment process at the Orly 2 plant, designed and built by Stereau, secures the supply of high-quality water to almost 800,000 Parisians, and enables emergency water supplies to neighboring distributors in the event of a crisis.<\/p>\n

The plant uses the Saur group’s patented Carboplus\u00ae process for treating emerging pollutants. This proven technology is able to remove a broad spectrum of micropollutants, including drug residues. It also offers the best cost\/benefit ratio in the operating phase. CarboPlus\u00ae reactors with continuous carbon renewal improve micropollutant removal efficiency. <\/p>\n

Eau de Paris appreciated the fact that CarboPlus\u00ae was exemplary in two key respects:<\/p>\n
