ETE BNH is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Área urbana de Amambai, within the municipality of Amambai, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The plant serves a small population of 397 residents, reflecting its role in a rural or peri-urban community. It is situated in the Centro-Oeste region, near the border with Paraguay. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard biological treatment required under Brazilian regulations (CONAMA resolutions) for most municipal wastewater. Secondary treatment typically involves biological processes to reduce organic matter and suspended solids. The plant discharges 83.75 m³/day of treated wastewater, though the specific receiving water body is not identified in available data. The treated effluent from ETE BNH likely flows into local streams or rivers within the Paraná River basin, which drains into the Río de la Plata estuary. The region's water resources support agriculture and biodiversity, making proper treatment essential for protecting downstream ecosystems and public health.
Environmental context
The plant's discharge enters the local watershed, which is part of the broader Paraná River basin. This basin is ecologically significant, supporting diverse aquatic life and providing water for agriculture and communities. The treated effluent, after secondary treatment, helps reduce organic pollution loads, protecting downstream water quality in rivers that ultimately flow into the Río de la Plata estuary.
