The article describes the works and installations designed to unite in one single plant all the purification plants that serve the capital of the country and its sorrounding district, with a capacity of approximately 3,000,000 m^/day, serving a population of about 8 millions. The construction complex comprises 5 phases out of which 3 are completed, one is in operation, and the last one in its beginning, developing the whole process of: pretreatment, primary decantation, biological purification, digestion, power station, control post —^with an extremely complete computer— relief of the treated liquid and drying of the sludges. The majority of the pipes are subterranean passing below high buildings, highways and the river Seine. Due to the fact that the ground that the complex occupies is situated close to a housing area, the compression and ventilator halls have been equipped to avoid disturbing noises.
