Isfahan Power Plant in the eponymous central province will soon get treated wastewater for its cooling towers, managing director of the provincial electric company said.
"The plant’s wastewater unit project has registered a work-in-progress rate of 70% and on completion will help save at least 5 billion cubic meters of water annually," Saeed Mohseni was quoted as saying by IRNA.
It will help increase the farming sector's water share in the central plateau which has been grappling with water paucity for long.
According to the official, the facility will treat effluents produced in nearby cities, namely Khomeini Shahr and Dorcheh, in two phases.
