February 23 (SeeNews) - Serbia’s autonomous province of Vojvodina said it has broken ground for a water purification plant in the northern town of Temerin, with an investment totalling 1.6 billion dinars ($14.8 million/13.7 million euro).
The plant, spanning about 3,000 sq m, will purify well water from the Staro Djurdjevo spring, the Vojvodina provincial government said in a press release on Thursday.
This will nearly quadruple the capacity of the Staro Djurdjevo spring from the existing 35 litres to 130 litres per second, enough to meet the needs of around 45,000 residents, said Mladen Zec, mayor of Temerin.
