The capital pays great attention to the water industry – from preparing drinking water to maintaining the biobalance in water bodies. Specialists take care not only of the Moscow River, but also of all small rivers and ponds. They closely monitor the quality of water in drinking sources and test water at all stages of its path to the taps of city apartments.

Find out how the bioplateau zone is structured

Forum visitors "Moscow 2030. Territory of the Future"in the Luzhniki Olympic Complex, visitors can learn more about modern methods of cleaning water bodies, as well as what bioplateau zones are and how they are arranged. On the site of the city economy complex in the Podkova zone, not far from the master class pavilion, there is a life-size model of the capital's pond, where rehabilitation work was carried out. Guests will see what plants are planted in the bioplateau zone and how the gabion reinforcement of the coastal strip is arranged.

An important element of the rehabilitation of the capital's water bodies is the creation of a bioplateau. For this purpose, special zones are allocated in the pond, where aquatic plants are planted. In this way, a unique ecosystem is created that promotes self-purification of water. The bioplateau serves as a shelter for fish and a nesting place for waterfowl.

The most popular plants of the bioplato of Moscow ponds are different types of irises, umbrella russula, narrow-leaved cattail, reed, bulrush and water lilies. All of them not only decorate the surface of the reservoirs, but also prevent the reproduction of algae that cause pond bloom, contribute to the improvement of the ecological balance, as well as self-purification of water from harmful impurities.

Purify the water and assemble the image of the water tower

Specialists from the State Unitary Enterprise Mosvodostok are holding a master class where participants can try themselves in the role of employees of the city economy complex, operating model boats in a special pool.

The City Economy Festival also offers other events that introduce the water industry. In the master class pavilion, visitors assemble limited edition puzzles dedicated to the Moscow water supply system. Last year, it turned 220 years old. The first gravity water supply system opened in 1804, and it laid the foundation for the modern water supply system for about 15 million residents of the Moscow region. Guests are invited to assemble an image of the Krestovsky water towers. This is a key element of the city's 19th-century water supply system that has not survived.

Create your own pipeline

Young forum participants can create their own engineering structure "Pipeline" using special tubes and connecting elements. In doing so, they will learn what a long way water travels from sources through water treatment stations to the taps of Moscow apartments.

Today, there are about 13 thousand kilometers of water supply networks in the capital. Water quality is monitored along its entire path from the source to the consumer. More than 500 automatic analyzers help monitor this — they are installed at water treatment stations and in the distribution network. And also — in-house laboratories, which are located at all four water treatment stations. Moscow water is analyzed based on the maximum number of physical, chemical and biological indicators — 200 in total.

In addition, the site has tanks from Mosvodokanal JSC with drinking water, which anyone can try.
