鍋屋上野浄水場, Water intake facility in Chikusa-ku, Japan.
Description
The Nabaya Ueno Water Purification Plant processes water using two methods: rapid chemical filtration and slow biological membrane filtration. The facility supplies cleaned water to several districts, including East and Central Nagoya.
History
The facility began operations in September 1914 as Nagoya's first water purification plant. It introduced modern water treatment technology to the region and shaped urban infrastructure for decades.
Culture
The former First Pump Station displays brick walls and natural slate roofing from another era. This structure was designated a Nagoya City Tangible Cultural Property in 2012 and reflects the region's industrial past.
Practical
The facility uses a computerized system to monitor water levels and pressure across the entire distribution network. Visitors should note that technical areas are typically not open to the public, though the exterior architecture can be appreciated.
Did you know?
The plant operates two distinct filtration systems with separate capacities to handle varying water needs. This dual system allows flexible adjustment to changing water volumes depending on season and demand.
