Bogote Szennyviztisztito Telep - Advanced Wastewater Treatment in Bögöte, Hungary

Bogote Szennyviztisztito Telep is an advanced wastewater treatment facility located in Bögöte, a village in Vas County within the Nyugat-Dunántúl region of western Hungary. The plant serves a small population of approximately 650 residents, reflecting its role in rural wastewater management. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, ensuring high-quality effluent before discharge. With a designed capacity of 833 m³/day and an actual discharge volume of 76.62 m³/day, the facility operates well below its capacity, indicating room for future growth or seasonal variations. As a Hungarian plant, it operates under national regulations aligned with the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC), which mandates appropriate treatment levels for small agglomerations. The treated wastewater is discharged into local water bodies that eventually drain into the Danube River basin, contributing to the broader hydrological network of Central Europe. The plant's advanced treatment helps protect downstream aquatic ecosystems and supports the region's water quality objectives.

The plant discharges into local streams that are part of the Danube River basin, ultimately flowing into the Black Sea. The surrounding Nyugat-Dunántúl region features a mix of agricultural land and small settlements, where maintaining water quality is crucial for biodiversity and groundwater recharge. Advanced treatment reduces nutrient loads, helping to prevent eutrophication in downstream water bodies.
