Severn Trent welcomed MP Stuart Anderson to its Ludlow sewage treatment works to showcase how it is improving river health with the pioneering use of ozone disinfection.
The South Shropshire MP heard how the cutting-edge technology works by cleaning waste water to the highest possible standard, before being returned to the river in its most natural state. The scheme is part of Severn Trent’s £78m Bathing Rivers project which involves improving over 50km of waterways, including helping towards creating a ‘bathing river’ quality stretch of the River Teme in Ludlow.
Mr Anderson said: “It was fascinating to have a tour of Severn Trent’s sewage treatment works here in Ludlow and hear how ozone disinfectant can help improve river health on the River Teme.
