KA Goldenstedt - Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant in Goldenstedt, Niedersachsen

KA Goldenstedt (plant ID 4600042038) is an advanced municipal wastewater treatment facility located in Goldenstedt, a town in the Landkreis Vechta district of Niedersachsen, Germany. The plant serves a population of approximately 7,067 and has a designed capacity of 8,000 m³/day, with an average daily discharge volume of 878.29 m³/day. As an advanced treatment plant, KA Goldenstedt goes beyond secondary treatment to remove nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, meeting the stringent requirements of the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for sensitive areas. The treated effluent is discharged into local watercourses that drain into the Weser River basin, ultimately reaching the North Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the region's water quality, supporting aquatic ecosystems and downstream water uses in the Weser catchment.

KA Goldenstedt discharges into the Weser River basin, which flows northward through Niedersachsen and into the North Sea. The Weser supports diverse aquatic life and is an important migratory corridor for fish species. The plant's advanced treatment helps reduce nutrient loads, mitigating eutrophication risks in the river and the Wadden Sea coastal zone.
