DP01808401_LUNGAVILLA Wastewater Treatment Plant, Lungavilla, Lombardia, Italy

DP01808401_LUNGAVILLA is an advanced wastewater treatment plant located in Lungavilla, a town in the province of Pavia, Lombardia, Italy. The plant serves a population of approximately 3,333 people and is part of the regional wastewater infrastructure managed under Italian and European regulations. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond secondary treatment to remove nutrients and other pollutants, ensuring high-quality effluent. With a designed capacity of 1,800 m³/day and a current discharge volume of 659.82 m³/day, the plant operates well within its capacity. As an advanced treatment facility, it meets the stringent requirements of the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for sensitive areas. The treated effluent is discharged into local watercourses that ultimately drain into the Po River basin, one of Italy's major river systems. The Po River flows eastward into the Adriatic Sea, supporting diverse aquatic ecosystems and agricultural activities. The plant's advanced treatment helps protect downstream water quality and ecological health.

The plant discharges into the Po River basin, which flows through northern Italy and empties into the Adriatic Sea. The Po River supports a rich ecosystem, including migratory fish species and wetland habitats. Advanced treatment at this plant reduces nutrient loads, helping to prevent eutrophication in the Adriatic coastal zone.
