Project overview

The Dourado Wastewater Treatment Plant (ETE Dourado) is part of the municipal sanitation infrastructure serving Dourado, in São Paulo state, Brazil.

The facility combines several biological and physical wastewater treatment processes to reduce organic pollutants and suspended solids before final discharge.

Its treatment configuration includes anaerobic reactors and filtration stages, followed by aerobic filtration, sedimentation and further filtration.

Anaerobic treatment enables the biological breakdown of organic matter without oxygen, while aerobic treatment provides an additional stage of biological processing. Subsequent sedimentation and filtration separate remaining suspended materials from the treated wastewater.

Mechanical screening forms part of the preliminary treatment infrastructure, removing larger solids before wastewater progresses through the biological processes.
