 Implementation of the project "Clean Volga" urban district Samara involves launching station ultraviolet wastewater treatment. The project is designed for several years, however, an active process of re-equipment of urban wastewater treatment plants is already underway.

 The applicant for technological connection of the new UV disinfection station is “Samaravodokanal” Municipal Unity. As a part of the technical specifications, it is planned to build a 6/0.4 kV a two-transformer substation and connect two cells at a 110 kV to the “Volgskaya” substation of Samara Branch of IDGC of Volga, PJSC.
