TEULADA LOC S ACCONA Wastewater Treatment Plant, Teulada, Sardinia

TEULADA LOC S ACCONA is a wastewater treatment plant located along Strada Statale 195 Sulcitana in Teulada, in the Sardinia region of Italy. The plant serves a population of approximately 6,988 residents, placing it in the small-to-medium agglomeration category under Italian and EU regulations. As a plant in Italy, it operates under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive 91/271/EEC, which requires secondary treatment for agglomerations of this size discharging into coastal or freshwater environments. The designed capacity is reported as 1.00, though the unit is unspecified; typical plants of this scale have capacities in the range of thousands of cubic meters per day. The plant's treated effluent likely discharges into local watercourses that drain into the Mediterranean Sea, given Sardinia's coastal geography. The region supports diverse marine and coastal ecosystems, and proper treatment is essential to protect water quality in the surrounding area.

The plant is located in Sardinia, an island in the Mediterranean Sea. Treated wastewater likely flows into local streams or directly into coastal waters, ultimately reaching the Mediterranean. The coastal and marine environment supports seagrass meadows, coral habitats, and diverse fish populations, making nutrient and pollutant control critical for ecosystem health.
