14 The Apulian Water Protection Master Plan Piano di Tutela delle Acque (PTA) (definitively issued on 20 th /October/2009) Aim: assessing the quality state of regional water resources and planning the implementation of the necessary measures for preventing their quali-quantitative worsening
15 One of the main goals of the Apulian PTA: STOP DISCHARGING TREATED MWW INTO GROUNDWATER! Corpo Sup. idrico wat. bodies sup. Suolo Soil 5% 5% Suolo Soil 21% Corpo Sup. wat. idrico bodies sup. 5% Sottosuolo Subsoil 31% 31% Situation: Mare Sea 12% 12% before PTA Sottosuolo Subsoil 0% Corpo Ephemeral idrico 0% Mare sup.ns streams Sea 16% 47% 47% Corpo idrico 16% Ephemeral streams sup.ns 58% 58% expected after PTA implementation
16 Geographical distribution of Apulian MWWTPs (182)
17 Criteria used for planning MWW Reuse in Apulia Selection of areas and WWTPs AREAS Possibility to storage the treated water in natural reservoirs Severe sea water intrusion and groundwater pollution phenomena Scarcity of superficial water bodies Presence of users MWWTPs Plants t technologically ll ready toproduce effluents having the required quality Plants whose technological upgrading can be rapidly achieved Plants that can be easily connected to the infrastructures necessary to distribute the treated effluents NB - In case all the above criteria were satisfied but the local water demand was lower than the wastewater production, the WW reuse was excluded.
18 Apulian PTA goals: IMPLEMENTING MWW REUSE Volumes of reusable municipal wastewater in Apulia according to the PTA 1 st phase 2 nd phase VOLUMES REUSABLE FROM THE POLISHING TREATMENT PLANTS ALREADY - EXITING or - UNDER CONSTRUCTION or - FINANCED POTENZIALITA' DISPONIBILE PROVINCIA POTENZIALITA' BARI mc/anno BRINDISI mc/anno FOGGIA mc/anno LECCE mc/anno TARANTO mc/anno TOTALE mc/anno VOLUMES THAT WILL BE REUSED WHEN ALL THE APULIAN WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS WILL BE EQUIPPED WITH A POLISHING STEP POTENZIALITA' TOTALE PROVINCIA POTENZIALITA' BARI mc/anno BRINDISI mc/anno FOGGIA mc/anno LECCE mc/anno TARANTO mc/anno TOTALE mc/anno Mm 3 /y NOTE THAT THIS IS JUST THE VOLUME PRESENTLY REQUIRED BY THE WHOLE APULIAN INDUSTRIAL SECTOR 147 Mm 3 /y
