VILLADOSE_LOC_CAMBIO_SUD is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in the Cambio district of Villadose, in the Veneto region of northern Italy. The plant serves a small population of 56 residents and operates with a designed capacity of 60 m³/day, currently discharging 11.09 m³/day of treated effluent. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard biological treatment required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. While the directive mandates secondary treatment for all inland discharges, smaller plants like this one may have simplified compliance requirements. The treated wastewater is discharged into local canals and drainage networks that flow into the Adige River, one of Italy's major rivers. The Adige ultimately reaches the Adriatic Sea near the Po Delta, a region of significant ecological importance supporting diverse aquatic life and migratory bird populations.
Environmental context
The plant's effluent enters the local canal system, which drains into the Adige River. The Adige flows through the Veneto region and empties into the Adriatic Sea near the Po Delta, a vast wetland ecosystem that supports diverse aquatic life and serves as a critical migratory corridor for birds. The region is ecologically sensitive due to its role in nutrient cycling and habitat provision.
