Goal
Goal 6. Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all
Target
Target 6.3. By 2030, improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally.
Indicator
Indicator 6.3.1. Proportion of wastewater safely treated
Sub-indicator
Sub-indicator 6.3.1.1. Porcentaje de carga contaminante total española correspondiente a poblaciones mayores de 2000 habitantes equivalentes que depuran adecuadamente las aguas residuales urbanas de acuerdo con el Art.4 de la Directiva 91/271/CEE sobre aguas residuales urbanas
Type of indicator (global, European, national)
Calculation method
\[PCC_{Depuracion, >2000 hab.}^t=\frac{PEQ_{Depuracion, >2000 hab.}^t}{PEQ_{>2000 hab.}^{t}} \cdot 100 \]Where: \( PEQ_{Depuracion, >2000 hab.}^t\)is the equivalent population of populations over 2000 hab-eq with adequate purification in year t and \( PEQ_{Colectores, >2000 hab.}^t\)is the total equivalent population of populations over 2,000 hab-eq in year t.
