VIDOR_VIA_RIVA_ALTA Wastewater Treatment Plant, Ciano del Montello, Veneto

VIDOR_VIA_RIVA_ALTA is an advanced wastewater treatment plant located in Ciano del Montello, a frazione of Crocetta del Montello in the Veneto region of Italy. The plant serves a population of 2,224 and is part of the municipal wastewater infrastructure for the area, operating under Italian regulations that implement the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC). The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond secondary treatment to remove nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, ensuring high-quality effluent. With a designed capacity of 2,500 cubic meters per day and a current discharge volume of 440.27 cubic meters per day, the plant operates well within its capacity, allowing for future growth or seasonal variations. The treated wastewater is discharged into the local water system, which ultimately drains into the Piave River. The Piave River flows into the Adriatic Sea, supporting diverse aquatic life and providing water for irrigation and recreation. The advanced treatment helps protect the river's ecological health and the downstream coastal environment.

The plant discharges into the Piave River basin, which flows from the Alps to the Adriatic Sea. The Piave River supports a variety of fish species and is an important water resource for agriculture in the Veneto region. The advanced treatment at this plant helps reduce nutrient loading, preventing eutrophication in the Adriatic Sea and protecting sensitive coastal ecosystems.
