Abfa Offers Treated Wastewater to TM

The National Water and Wastewater Engineering Company of Iran (Abfa) is ready to supply at least 15 million cubic meters of treated wastewater to Tehran Municipality a year for watering parks and green spaces, the deputy head of operations at Tehran Water and Wastewater Company said.
“Six wastewater treatment plants are up and running in Tehran, producing 17 mcm of reclaimed sewage a year, because of which TM is no longer allowed to tap into depleting underground resources in the sprawling capital,” Morteza Ehteshami was also quoted as saying by ILNA.
“The metropolis of Tehran is divided into 22 municipal districts, and the supply of treated wastewater to District 2 has already started. Similar talks are underway with mayors of districts 5, 9, 1 and 3.”
