Uppsala Vatten advierte sobre la presencia de uranio en el agua de Vänge

Uppsala Vatten recomienda no beber el agua municipal en Vänge tras la avería de un filtro de uranio. Se espera que la interrupción dure más de un día y se ha aconsejado a 1.200 personas que recojan agua de tanques de emergencia.

Uppsala Vatten detectó la interrupción operativa durante la noche del martes al miércoles en la planta de agua de Vänge, justo al oeste de Uppsala. El filtro que elimina el uranio no funciona, lo que ha dado lugar a intensos trabajos y toma de muestras según la responsable de agua potable, Maria Lindqvist Petterson. El agua puede utilizarse para los inodoros y la higiene personal, pero los residentes deben tener precaución al ducharse y no ingerir agua, especialmente al bañar a los niños. Se han instalado tanques de agua de emergencia en la escuela de Vänge y en el centro de la localidad. Según Uppsala Vatten, el problema podría resolverse el jueves por la tarde.
