Impianto di Depurazione di Nervesa - Advanced Wastewater Treatment in Nervesa della Battaglia, Veneto

Impianto di Depurazione di Nervesa is an advanced wastewater treatment plant located in the Bidasio area of Nervesa della Battaglia, in the Veneto region of Italy. The plant serves a small population of 171 people and has a designed capacity of 250 cubic meters per day, with an average discharge volume of 33.85 cubic meters per day. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond secondary treatment to remove nutrients and other pollutants. Under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC), Italy requires appropriate treatment for discharges into sensitive areas, and advanced treatment is typical for plants in such regions to protect water quality. The treated effluent is discharged into local watercourses that drain into the Piave River basin, ultimately reaching the Adriatic Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the local watershed and downstream ecosystems from nutrient pollution and other contaminants.

The plant discharges into the Piave River basin, which flows into the Adriatic Sea near Venice. The Piave River supports diverse aquatic life and is an important water resource for the Veneto region. The advanced treatment helps reduce nutrient loads, protecting the sensitive coastal environment of the northern Adriatic from eutrophication.
