Using water wisely in a drought-stricken state

Download pdf

São Paulo state has been suffering a record-beating drought, affecting the lives of millions of people
Parque D. Pedro Shopping wanted to support water conservation and mitigate water scarcity risks and found a way to do so by extracting greater value from its Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and increasing the proportion of wastewater reused.

A win-win partnership with General Water enabled Parque D. Pedro Shopping to upgrade the WWTP without having to cover the capital costs of the initial investment
Water treated through ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis now provides for different uses in the shopping centre, increasing the percentage of water reused, thus reducing withdrawal from municipal water supplies and increasing the community’s available water supply
