ETE Alambari SP - Wastewater Treatment Plant in Alambari, São Paulo, Brazil

ETE Alambari SP is a wastewater treatment plant located in Alambari, a municipality in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The plant serves a population of 2,429 and operates with secondary treatment, which is appropriate for small communities in the region. However, as a secondary treatment facility, it meets the basic standards required for organic matter and suspended solids removal. In Brazil, wastewater treatment is regulated by federal and state environmental agencies, with CONAMA resolutions setting discharge standards. The treated effluent is discharged into local water bodies that drain into the Paranapanema River basin, a major tributary of the Paraná River. This river system supports diverse aquatic life and is important for water supply and agriculture in southeastern Brazil. The plant plays a key role in protecting downstream water quality.

The plant discharges into local streams that flow into the Paranapanema River, part of the larger Paraná River basin. This watershed supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and is used for irrigation and drinking water. The region's subtropical climate with seasonal rainfall can affect dilution capacity, making consistent treatment important for downstream environmental health.
