TOMMERUP ST BY RENSEANLAEG - Advanced Wastewater Treatment in Tommerup, Denmark

TOMMERUP ST BY RENSEANLAEG is an advanced wastewater treatment facility located in Tommerup, Assens Kommune, Denmark. The plant serves a population of approximately 2,006 and has a designed capacity of 3,200 m³/day, with an average discharge volume of 545.76 m³/day. As an advanced treatment plant, it provides a higher level of pollutant removal beyond secondary treatment, which is typical for sensitive areas under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC). Denmark implements strict nutrient removal standards, especially for nitrogen and phosphorus, to protect its coastal and inland waters. The plant discharges treated effluent into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Little Belt (Lillebælt), a strait between the island of Funen and the Jutland peninsula. This area supports diverse marine life and is an important ecological corridor in the Baltic Sea region.

The treated effluent from TOMMERUP ST BY RENSEANLAEG flows into local watercourses that drain into the Little Belt (Lillebælt), a strait connecting the Kattegat and the Baltic Sea. This marine environment supports diverse aquatic life, including fish, seabirds, and benthic communities. The advanced treatment level helps minimize nutrient loading, which is critical for preventing eutrophication in the sensitive Baltic Sea ecosystem.
