GENERAL PROJECT

Witton Gilbert STW WINEP Phosphorous Removal

As part of the Water Industry National Environmental Programme (WINEP), we will be installing new tertiary treatment plant to enable the site to contribute to a catchment wide reduction in phosphorous discharges. The improvement works will cost around £2.3m, and it’s one of 27 sites within the NWG region to receive an upgrade. Phosphorous is a nutrient and can cause algae to grow in watercourses, reducing biodiversity and river water quality.
