Chvaletice, Sewage treatment plant

The reconstruction of the existing structures and the construction of the new sections of the waste water treatment plant in Chvaletice was required especially because of the construction of the facility for desulphurization and the resulting conversion from the hydraulic off-take to the dry off-take of slag and light ash.
