Agata Li Battiati, S. Giovanni La Punta, Tremestieri Etneo, Gravina, S. Gregorio, Misterbianco), from the collection to the distribution of water for civil use, irrigation and industrial management of sewerage and waste water purification. Sidra manages a complex production system, which ensures the withdrawal of the water resource from the subsoil through tunnels and boreholes (Tavolone tunnel, Turchio tunnel, Consolazione tunnel, and Fisichelli, Etna Acque, Giusti, Messina and AISA wells). The water, suitably purified through a sandblasting and disinfection process, is then conveyed, via adduction pipelines, to 10 tanks serving the metropolitan area, The story : The origins of the company date back to 1967 when the Municipal Administration began to directly manage the plants of the Casalotto Water Company; in 1971 the Municipal Aqueduct Company was born which since 1995, with the acquisition of the Etna Acque Company, extends the service to neighboring municipalities. 1996 marks the birth of the Sidra Special Company, which thus begins to acquire all the characteristics of entrepreneurial autonomy and legal personality until 2001, when the Etna Acque and Sidra companies merge into a single legal entity, called Sidra spa. Sidra is committed to preserving and renewing the plant heritage to adapt it to European standards. The numbers : Sidra serve circa 100.000 utenze, pari ad una popolazione media servita di circa 320.000 abitanti. La rete acquedottistica ha una lunghezza globale di circa 900 km. La rete fognaria attualmente ha una lunghezza di 488 Km, di cui 82 c.d. “bianca”, 148 nera, 258 mista. L’impianto di depurazione può assicurare il servizio ad una potenzialità di 325.000 abitanti equivalenti, direttamente o mediante il ricevimento degli espurghi attraverso l’impianto di smaltimento dei bottini. Nell’ambito delle iniziative volte a superare i rigori della procedura di infrazione comunitaria “Acque Reflue” SIDRA provvede, a supporto del Comune di Catania, a progettare e realizzare il completamento della rete fognaria e l’ammodernamento e il potenziamento dell’impianto di depurazione, per la protezione degli acquiferi e la valorizzazione ambientale, naturalistica e turistica dell’area metropolitana di Catania. Obiettivo ambizioso è quello di raggiungere entro il 2019, raddoppiando lo sviluppo della rete fognaria, la copertura dell’intero agglomerato di Catania con una rete collegata ad un impianto di depurazione, con elevati standard tecnologici e di sicurezza. Grande attenzione è posta al riuso delle acque reflue e alle possibilità di riutilizzo, anche per il recupero naturalistico e ambientale di aree periferiche.
