Malteser Albania donates special machinery for the automatic chlorination of the drinking water for the population of Shkodra to the Drinking Water-Supply Establishment of the Municipality of Shkodra.
During the flood of last weeks, drinking water in different quarters of Shkodra Municipality was contaminated. The Interministerial Committee coordinating the Civil Emergency in the area of Shkodra ranked the need of this machinery as a priority. After request from the authorities of the Municipality, Malteser Albania supported by its volunteers and friends in Tirana from the one side and through the much appreciated financial support by Malteser Hospitaldienst Austria, facilitated by the Ambassador of the Order of Malta in Albania, Professor Granser, Albanian Malteser provided the special machinery for the automatic chlorination of drinking water.
In this way the population will drink standardized chlorinated water, avoiding the past situation, when drinking water was chlorinated in a mechanical way and didn’t match the needed standards.
