Water

Finavia aims to reduce environmental loading resulting from substances used in anti-skid treatment and in the anti-and de-icing of aircraft through good planning at the construction stage. Environmental loading is monitored continuously.

Airports generate water effluents mainly through two actions: The de-icing sprays, for which air carriers use glycol-water compound, and the anti-skid treatments of runways, for which Finavia uses acetates and formates. The substances have not been classified as hazardous.
