SAN PIETRO DI FELETTO RUA VIA CASTELLO Wastewater Treatment Plant, Rua di Feletto, Veneto

SAN PIETRO DI FELETTO RUA VIA CASTELLO is an advanced wastewater treatment plant located in Rua di Feletto, a frazione of San Pietro di Feletto in the Veneto region of Italy. The plant serves a small population of 970 people and is part of the municipal wastewater infrastructure for the area. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond secondary treatment to remove nutrients and other pollutants. With a designed capacity of 2000 m³/day and an average discharge of 192.03 m³/day, the plant operates well below its capacity. As an Italian facility, it operates under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC), which requires appropriate treatment for discharges into sensitive areas. The treated effluent is discharged into local water bodies that ultimately drain into the Adriatic Sea via the Piave River basin. The Veneto region is known for its agricultural and industrial activities, and the plant plays a key role in protecting downstream water quality and the ecological health of the lagoon and coastal environments.

The plant discharges into the local drainage network that flows into the Piave River, which empties into the Adriatic Sea near Venice. The downstream environment includes the Venice Lagoon, a sensitive coastal ecosystem that supports diverse aquatic life and is important for migratory birds. Advanced treatment helps reduce nutrient loading, which is critical for preventing eutrophication in the lagoon and coastal waters.
