Perbal Szennyviztisztito Telep - Advanced Wastewater Treatment in Tinnye, Hungary

Perbal Szennyviztisztito Telep is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Tinnye, within the Pest county of Hungary's Közép-Magyarország region. The plant serves a population of 2,021, classifying it as a small agglomeration under Hungarian and EU regulatory frameworks. The facility operates with advanced treatment, which goes beyond the secondary treatment standard required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. The plant has a designed capacity of 3,101 m³/day and currently discharges 238.24 m³/day of treated wastewater, indicating significant spare capacity. The treated effluent is discharged into local watercourses that eventually drain into the Danube River basin, which flows into the Black Sea. The plant's advanced treatment helps protect downstream aquatic ecosystems and supports water quality in the sensitive Danube catchment area.

The plant's discharge enters local streams that are part of the Danube River basin, one of Europe's most significant river systems. The Danube ultimately flows into the Black Sea, supporting diverse aquatic life and providing water for millions of people. Advanced treatment at this plant reduces nutrient loads, helping to prevent eutrophication in downstream water bodies and the Black Sea.
