Overview
ETE MAMBORE is a wastewater treatment plant serving Mamborê, Paraná, Brazil. It treats wastewater from approximately 5,627 residents as part of the municipal sanitation infrastructure.
ETE MAMBORE is a wastewater treatment plant located in Mamborê, a municipality in the state of Paraná, Brazil. The plant serves a population of approximately 5,627 people, making it a small-scale facility within the region's sanitation network. It operates under Brazil's national environmental regulations, which set standards for effluent quality and water resource protection. As a small agglomeration, the plant is expected to provide at least secondary treatment in line with Brazilian norms, which typically require biological processes to reduce organic load and suspended solids. It plays a key role in managing local domestic wastewater. The treated effluent from ETE MAMBORE is discharged into a local watercourse that flows into the Paraná River basin, one of South America's major river systems. This basin supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and provides water for agriculture, industry, and communities downstream. Proper treatment helps protect water quality in the region's streams and rivers.
Environmental context
The plant discharges into a tributary of the Paraná River basin, which drains into the Paraná River and eventually the Río de la Plata estuary. The watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is important for regional water supply. Effective wastewater treatment is essential to prevent nutrient loading and maintain ecological balance in this sensitive river system.
