LANGTOFTEGARD SUNDBY Wastewater Treatment Plant, Morsø, Denmark

LANGTOFTEGARD SUNDBY is a wastewater treatment plant located in the Morsø Kommune of Region Nordjylland, Denmark. The facility serves a population of 394 and is situated near the coastal area of the Limfjord region. As a small-scale plant, it plays a role in managing local wastewater in this rural part of northern Denmark. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond the secondary treatment standard required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. With a designed capacity of 9,000 m³/day and an actual discharge volume of 753.50 m³/day, the plant operates well below its capacity, indicating room for future growth or seasonal variations. The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Limfjord, a shallow sound connecting the North Sea to the Kattegat. The Limfjord supports diverse aquatic life and is an important ecological area for fish and bird species. The plant's advanced treatment helps protect this sensitive coastal environment from nutrient pollution.

The plant discharges into the local watershed that flows into the Limfjord, a shallow sound in northern Denmark connecting the North Sea and the Kattegat. The Limfjord is an ecologically sensitive area that supports diverse aquatic life, including fish, shellfish, and migratory birds. Advanced treatment at this plant helps reduce nutrient loading, protecting the fjord's water quality and ecosystem health.
