Bagnols Wastewater Treatment Plant
France

This wastewater treatment plant  will be built to the South East of Bagnols sur Ceze, in the wine-growing region of Languedoc-RoussiIIon, on the plains of the river Euze, amongst the vineyards. It will receive the municipal and viticulture effluent from seven surrounding communities.

Biwater has worked closely with architects to sensitively integrate the design of the plant into the vineyards and to reflect the traditional construction methods of the Provence region.

The new WwTP will be equipped with a biological dephosphation system, a tertiary filtration and a UV treatment system.
