São Paulo Government Explores European Water Recycling Solutions Amid Severe Drought
The São Paulo government and Sabesp have commenced a technical mission in Europe to explore wastewater recycling technologies amid severe drought conditions. Led by Environment Secretary Natália Resende, the mission includes visits to Dublin's Ringsend Wastewater Treatment Plant and Colchester's Water Recycling Centre, which aims to meet 24% of local water demand through recycled water.
The initiative seeks to apply learned solutions to improve water resilience in São Paulo. The final stop will be in Barcelona, where the delegation will discuss strategies for water scarcity. The mission emphasizes the importance of diversifying water supply sources to sustain growth.
