Information about water disposal in major cities of Russia

Generalized data on water disposal for 2017 are presented. The major cities of Russia with a population of 180 to 650 thousand people are considered. The information is taken from the information disclosure standards for large cities contained on the websites of regions and enterprises engaged in water disposal. The empirical dependences of the volume of water received from consumers on the population of the city; revenue from regulated activities (water disposal) on the volume of water supplied to consumers; the volume of electric energy used in the technological process on the volume of wastewater received from consumers are presented. The developed calculation methods will help to improve the efficiency of management of water disposal systems in modern large cities.
