- Global (proxy)
Percentage of the population equivalent of agglomerations with more than 2,000 equivalent inhabitants in the national territory that undergo secondary or secondary equivalent treatment and meet the requirements of Part B of Annex I of Directive 91/271/EEC for the removal of organic matter and suspended solids.
\[PCC_{Depuracion, >2000 hab.}^t=\frac{PEQ_{Depuracion, >2000 hab.}^t}{PEQ_{>2000 hab.}^{t}} \cdot 100 \]Where: \( PEQ_{Depuracion, >2000 hab.}^t\)is the equivalent population of populations over 2000 hab-eq with adequate purification in year t and \( PEQ_{Colectores, >2000 hab.}^t\)is the total equivalent population of populations over 2,000 hab-eq in year t.
