Kiskoros Szennyviztisztito Telep - Tabdi, Hungary Wastewater Treatment Plant

Kiskoros Szennyviztisztito Telep is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Tabdi, within the Kiskőrösi járás of Bács-Kiskun vármegye, Hungary. Situated in the Dél-Alföld region, the plant serves a population of around 11,305 people, classifying it as a medium-sized agglomeration under EU standards. As a Hungarian facility, the plant is subject to the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC), which requires secondary treatment for agglomerations of this size. The directive also mandates more stringent treatment if the receiving water body is designated as a sensitive area. The plant's treatment processes and capacity are aligned with these regulatory requirements to ensure compliance and environmental protection. The treated effluent from the plant is discharged into local waterways that ultimately drain into the Danube River basin, a major European river system flowing into the Black Sea. The plant plays a crucial role in protecting the water quality of the region's surface waters, supporting aquatic ecosystems and downstream communities that rely on these water resources.

The plant discharges into the Danube River basin, which flows through Hungary and several other countries before reaching the Black Sea. The Danube supports diverse aquatic life and is an important migratory corridor for fish species. The plant's operations help maintain water quality in this ecologically significant watershed, reducing nutrient and pollutant loads that could otherwise contribute to eutrophication in downstream lakes and coastal areas.
