Overview
ETE MONTIVIDIU is a secondary treatment plant serving Montividiu, Goiás, Brazil. It discharges approximately 723 m³/day of treated wastewater into local water bodies.
ETE MONTIVIDIU is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Montividiu, a city in the state of Goiás, Brazil. The plant serves a population of approximately 4,648 residents, reflecting the scale of a small agglomeration in the Brazilian Midwest region. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard level required by Brazil's National Environment Council (CONAMA) for most urban wastewater. The plant's discharge volume of 723.02 m³/day indicates it operates within the typical range for communities of this size. Brazilian regulations, such as CONAMA Resolution 430/2011, set effluent quality standards for biochemical oxygen demand and other parameters. The treated effluent is discharged into local waterways that ultimately drain into the Paraná River basin, a major hydrological system in South America. This basin supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and is important for agriculture and water supply in the region. Proper treatment helps protect downstream water quality and ecological health.
Environmental context
The plant discharges into streams within the Paraná River basin, which flows through central Brazil and eventually reaches the Río de la Plata estuary. This watershed supports a variety of freshwater species and is used for irrigation and drinking water. Effective secondary treatment reduces organic pollution and nutrient loads, helping to maintain the ecological balance of the receiving waters.
