Belgrade Airport expansion advances
NEWS FLASH
Work at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport continues to advance with the greatest progress being made on the newly expanded part of the C concourse. Exterior panels continue to be installed, while the structure has reached the existing C concourse gates. Work on the expansion and adaptation of the A concourse is in full swing, with a number of gates now closed off to the public. Construction of the new control tower is also advancing, with the structure now surpassing the height of the existing control tower.
A new landside waste facility is currently under construction and will be completed in the first half of the year. The airside waste facility is planned to be operational in 2022. The airport is also looking to reduce water consumption. The first step is to understand the airport’s consumption behaviour. As a result, in January 2021, the maintenance team installed seven new water meters in strategic points around the airport. The consumption data is collected daily, and a Water Consumption Committee is being developed to analyse the data, identify problems and their root cause and then act. In the short term, this avoids water waste and unnecessary consumption, while in the long term, the data will be analysed to define new projects and to make strategic decisions. Belgrade Airport is building a new WWTP (Waste Water Treatment Plant) with high treatment efficiency, The treated water will be transformed into reuse water, which will be able to supply toilet flushes, cooling towers, the new heating plant and others. It is important to note that the reuse water produced by the WWTP will not be utilised for potable uses, such as cooking, washing hands or drinking water. Belgrade Airport is also installing aerating nozzles in the washbasin taps, which will result in a water consumption reduction of at least 70%, with no impact in user perception or hand sanitisation. In addition, timed flushes at the urinals and toilets are being installed, and waterless urinals will be installed in the extended and renovated areas of the passenger terminal building.
