In the first case it is applicate at the tap of the end-user, for example under the sink.
The water used is already pre-treated, but unreliable for any reason. There is not any
additional treatment necessary, like UV disinfection, chlorination, adding of minerals.
The stand-alone systems are suitable for customers who are not connected to any
water supply. The raw water is obtained from i.e. rainwater, surface water or well water
(groundwater).
Heavy metals are filtered out by an additional filtration step for the specific metals. The
systems are therefore suitable for areas with i.e. high boron and arsenic
concentrations. Increasing the taste (in particular chlorous remnants) is also among
the options.
The total cost of ownership of the systems is very low due the low investment, low
maintenance, easy installation and high yield. Products are besides households very
well suitable for schools/university, hospitality, public offices/spaces, health. And also
for the rural area/country side, in combination with rain water harvesting.

GENERAL
Are the Moldovans aware of drink water, are they thinking about it?
The awareness of the Moldovans can be divided by two zones. The majority of the
consumers from urban areas are aware of what they drink and they use, bottled water,
treatment systems or buy it from economic agents that sell treated water. On the
other hand people in rural areas are convinced that well water is of good quality and
do not present a health hazard even though some of them are willing to procure water
treatment equipment to ensure water quality. Moldovans culture say that the best
water is that one your getting from the well and the main point that state this idea is
that our grandparents used it ,our parents used it , and we also have to use it .
What is the biggest annoyance in the field of drinking water? In other words:
which improvement is desired in quality, pricing, availability, inconvenience?
The biggest annoyance in the field of drinking water is quality, availability and the
price.
Assessments suggest that the average Moldovan household currently already spends
5% of its monthly disposable income on WSS services, i.e. at the level of the accepted
threshold of affordability of 5%. The micro-affordability analysis of households grouped
by deciles in line with the NBS (National Bureau of Statistics) methodology suggests
that the poorest decile would have to spend 15% of its disposable income to afford
minimal WSS services standards: this is a far too high.
Also pollution which is as well a quality as it mean a lack of drinking water. Moldovas
water pollution has both point sources (namely the discharge of insufficiently treated
or untreated wastewater) and diffuse sources (in particular, rainwater drained from
settlements and runoff from agricultural land and dumps). Wastewater discharged from
residential or industrial areas is a major contributor to surface water pollution, as the
majority of the wastewater treatment plants have ceased operation. The quantity of
untreated or insufficiently treated wastewater has dramatically risen since 2000. In
rural areas, where most of the population draws their drinking water from polluted
groundwater sources and where only 17 percent of families use central supply sources,
the low quality of water has a direct impact on the populations health, generating
additional health-related expenditures for the state budget and economy.
The situation regarding the quality of the drinking water delivered to the consumers in
Republic of Moldova:
a)
b)
Most of the groundwater used for the drinking water is inadequate because of
natural or anthropic pollution;
c)
A high percentage of samples were inadequate in terms of microbiological
parameters (10.82% in urban areas and 14.24% in rural areas);
d)
Water quality delivered to schools and institutions for children is inadequate
(54.38% of samples exceed the maximum allowable concentrations for sanitarychemical parameters and 20.21% of samples exceeding maximum permissible
concentrations by microbiological parameters).

several provisions of European directives), which aims at protecting water from
pollution and sets environmental quality standards;

improve the legal and institutional framework of the Republic of Moldova in line with
EU directives, so that people could get new services at the new European level of
quality; and
Competition
If we speak about the local producers so theres no active companies of a high profile
that produce decentralised water systems but we have companies that import
decentralised water systems like
TOPAZ-AKVAFOR.

Market Segment
As a new product it has to prove the result to catch any of the segments of the
market.
1. Public spaces
The interest in this segment will be very low, as they sell bottled water and thats a
part of their income.
2. Hospitals, hotels, restaurants.
Interest in this segment depends on the profi le of the every unit, Private
will be interested while the public sector will not as they have a lack of
fi nancial resources.
3. Health
This sector is a diff erent one as the majority of them have diff erent
systems for water treatment. Theres a requirement of a good add to the
product in order to convince them to buy your product
With financial support provided by the EBRD and EIB around 68 million public
provider SA APA CANAL is going to rehabilitate the water pipelines and of the
connections between them.
The project of modernizing the water and sanitation supply system expect for the first
stage, the rehabilitation of 190 km of aqueduct namely the most damaged sections.
The second stage, expect the modernization of the water treatment station in
Chisinau, rehabilitation of 15 km of sewage collectors, rehabilitation of drinking water
tanks from the water treatment station and construction and rehabilitation of 50
artesian wells that will be used in exceptional circumstances. Also it will be built the
first production factory of sodium hypochlorite in Moldova, substance that is used in
the process of water treatment.
Now the project to improve the water supply in the north is ongoing with a budget of
30 million. The project aims to maintain and expand the aqueduct water supply in the
north region. Also is in process the construction of the aqueduct Chisinau - Straseni Calarasi, with an estimated budget of about seven million, which provides a new
connection with about 20 villages located along the water supply network.
The EBRD's financial support would cover feasibility study costs on the construction of
the aqueduct Leova-Cimislia-Basarabeasca, extending water distribution in six districts
in the south and reviving water and sanitation operators by developing in the first
phase of a Performance Management.
