COV II Moravska Nova Ves Wastewater Treatment Plant, Moravská Nová Ves, Czech Republic

COV II Moravska Nova Ves is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Moravská Nová Ves, a village in the Jihomoravský kraj (South Moravian Region) of the Czech Republic. The plant serves a population of 631 and has a designed capacity of 1,000 m³/day, currently discharging approximately 153.43 m³/day of treated wastewater. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations with a population equivalent (PE) between 2,000 and 10,000. For smaller agglomerations like this one (631 people), the directive requires appropriate treatment, which secondary treatment fulfills. The plant operates within the Czech national regulatory framework, which transposes the EU directive. The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Morava River basin and then the Danube River, flowing into the Black Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting local water quality and the downstream aquatic environment in the South Moravian region.

The plant discharges into the Morava River basin, a tributary of the Danube, which flows into the Black Sea. The Morava River supports diverse aquatic life and is an important ecological corridor in Central Europe. The surrounding area is agricultural, and the plant helps reduce nutrient loads that could otherwise contribute to eutrophication in downstream water bodies.
