Use


The consumption of water is constantly increasing -in the public utility sector as well as in the industry sector. The result is larger quantities of waste water which causes additional environmental strains and endangers the supply of drinking water. Especially in longer periods of rainfall when the influx of water is significantly increased, treatment plants cannot effectively treat the water. This is why we re-direct the critical influxes (of high water) with the overburden repository past the treatment plants as the re-directed water is already proportionately clean. Excess water needs to be re-directed past the oil traps also in the draining of motorways.
