A waste ball, of almost half a ton, has appeared in Goods treatment plant, which provides wastewater treatment services to A Coruña, Arteixo, Cambre, Culleredo and Oleiros.
– Waste ball / Goods treatment plant
this ball, known as sheep or monster of the sewers, which is how the groups of these wastes are known, is composed of wipes, pads, tampons, and even condoms, which citizens throw into the drains instead of the garbage can.
Around five sheep a year usually arrive at the Bens WWTP. The waste accumulates in the sewers of the cities and is dragged to the sewage treatment plant in rainier times. But in Bens they are not only aware of these residues when the monsters of the sewers arrive. Every day they deal with them.
The workers of the sewage treatment plant want to appeal to the public to demand that neither wipes, cotton buds nor other hygiene products be thrown down the drain. Neither does the oil. There are containers enabled to deposit it. One liter of oil can pollute 30,000 liters of water.
