Title

Seafield Treatment Centre - Veolia

Description

Seafield is Scotland?s largest wastewater treatment works, treating the wastewater from the population equivalent of 850,000 people and is open for organised tours on Doors Open Day. You will hear how Edinburgh?s wastewater was treated in the past, then discover how it is treated today. Gone are the days where sewage was tossed into the streets or loaded onto the Gardyloo ship - you?ll see how today's treatment methods adhere to strict environmental regulations and even produce energy rich products such as green energy that can be exported to the national grid, and a nutrient rich fertiliser that is used in agriculture.
