SERVICES FOR DRINKING WATER TREATMENT PLANTS
Description
The operation of any drinking water treatment plant (DWTP) involves a high financial cost that grows when the quality of the water is reduced by factors such as heavy rain, which increases water turbidity, or droughts, which generally increase the concentration of pollutants. Stakeholders in the urban water sector and DWTP managers can benefit from a series of climate change projections focused on future droughts and algae development.
