Background
The water park in the municipality of Brtonigla in Istria County is the first water park in Croatia. It spans an area of 80,000 square meters, with 4,500 square meters dedicated to water surfaces. Among other attractions, the park features the largest artificial wave pool in the Mediterranean. In order to achieve economic sustainability, park officials have opted for brackish water desalination.
Challenges
Water is drawn from the perimeter canal of the Mirna River. Due to increased chloride content, bacteriological impurities, and turbidity, the water needs treatment with disinfectants to remove excess salt and turbidity to meet the standards for safe drinking water. This treated water is used for washing and filling pools and attractions within the park.
Solutions
The solution involved the supply and installation of a 3M BW unit for desalination, pre-filtration with a 3MPF sand filtration system, and disinfection using 3MPM2 dosing units. The plant produces 400,000 liters per day of water for the park’s needs.
Results
The plant produces 400,000 liters of drinking water per day for the park’s requirements.
