PANORAMA OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR'S PARTICIPATION IN SANITATION 2021
aires, awarded by Aegea, with the best qual- ening of the company's relationship with
ifying for the national stage.
In the project's second edition, in 2020, the
Pioneiros project had the participation of 106
young people from 10 municipalities where
Aegea operates, namely: Manaus (AM), Bar-
carena (PA), Teresina (PI), Timon (MA), Barra
do Garças (MT), Campo Grande (MS), Campo
Verde (MT), Primavera do Leste (MT), Sinop
(MT) and Sorriso (MT). Last year the project
had to undergo a redesign due to the pan-
demic, and is now applied online.
Among the main results observed in young
people who have been through the course
are: the reduction of the school dropout
rate, development of projects, strength-
communities, encouragement of volun-
tary work, and the opening up of job op-
portunities. Some young pioneers have
the chance to be hired as apprentices at
the end of the project, or even be taken on
permanently by the company.
"In conversations with the tutors, we see that
the dynamics with young students, based
on exchanges, creates a vision of the future,
vision of discipline and, in a way, lights up
the path for the development of these young
people, whose destiny is to take care of their
communities. This feedback between pro-
fessionals and students will bear surpris-
ing fruit in the future", highlights Radamés
Casseb, the CEO of Aegea Saneamento.
Guaratinguetá (SP)
PPP Sewage
Since 2008, the Guaratinguetá Saneamento
concessionaire (Iguá Group) is responsible
for sewage collection and treatment ser-
vices for the population of almost 110,000
people. In order to promote sustainability
by reducing the consumption of drinking
water for less prestigious purposes in drain
clearance services, since December 2020,
the company has been reusing the treated
effluents to supply vacuum trucks. With
this initiative, the station has been able to
significantly reduce the consumption of
drinking water that was formerly necessary
to carry out drain clearance services.
The concessionaire estimates that 150 m³
of water will be saved every month, with
the reuse of treated effluent. The volume
is enough to supply about 750 people per
month and 9,000 people a year.
The use of treated effluents for urban pur-
poses has been prominent in the state of
São Paulo since 2017, when Joint Reso-
lution SES/SIMA No. 01 was created. The
implementation of the reuse system is effi-
cient for a swift reduction of consumption
and costs with drinking water, bringing a
fast return at a low cost.
