Miszla Szennyviztisztito Telep - Secondary Wastewater Treatment in Miszla, Hungary

Miszla Szennyviztisztito Telep is a municipal wastewater treatment facility located in the village of Miszla, within the Tamási District of Tolna County, Hungary. The plant serves a small population of 160 residents, reflecting the rural character of the area in the Dél-Dunántúl (Southern Transdanubia) region. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard biological treatment stage required under Hungarian and EU regulations for small agglomerations. With a designed capacity of 185 m³/day and an actual discharge volume of 18.86 m³/day, the plant operates well below its capacity, indicating it is sized for future growth or seasonal peaks. Treated effluent from the plant is discharged into local waterways that ultimately drain into the Danube River basin, contributing to the broader Danube catchment. The plant plays a key role in protecting local streams and groundwater from untreated sewage, supporting the ecological health of the region's aquatic environments.

The plant discharges into small streams that flow into the Kapos River, a tributary of the Sió River, which eventually joins the Danube River. The Danube then flows into the Black Sea. The local watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is part of Hungary's agricultural landscape, making proper wastewater treatment essential to prevent nutrient pollution and maintain water quality in downstream ecosystems.
