1520262001 KA Landwehrhagen - Closed Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant in Niedersachsen

KA Landwehrhagen (1520262001) is a former municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Landwehrhagen, a district of Staufenberg in the Landkreis Göttingen, Niedersachsen, Germany. The plant served a small agglomeration of approximately 3,100 people and was designed with an advanced treatment level. As an advanced treatment facility, the plant likely employed processes such as biological nutrient removal or chemical precipitation to meet stringent effluent standards. Although the plant is now closed, it operated under Germany's implementation of the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC), which requires appropriate treatment for discharges into sensitive areas. The plant's treated effluent would have been discharged into a local watercourse within the Weser river basin, ultimately draining into the North Sea. The surrounding region is characterized by mixed agricultural and forested landscapes, with the nearby Fulda and Werra rivers contributing to the Weser system.

The plant's discharge would have entered a tributary of the Weser river system, which flows through central Germany to the North Sea. The Weser basin supports diverse aquatic habitats, including spawning grounds for migratory fish species. The advanced treatment level would have helped protect downstream water quality in this ecologically sensitive river network.
