Pusztazamor Szennyviztisztito Telep - Advanced Wastewater Treatment in Pusztazámor, Hungary

Pusztazamor Szennyviztisztito Telep is a municipal wastewater treatment facility located in Pusztazámor, a village in Pest County, Hungary. The plant serves a population of approximately 1,343 residents, reflecting its role in managing domestic wastewater for this small agglomeration in the Central Hungary region. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond the secondary treatment standard required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. With a designed capacity of 750 cubic meters per day and an actual discharge volume of 158.32 cubic meters per day, the facility operates well below its capacity, indicating room for future growth or seasonal variations. The treated effluent is discharged into local watercourses that ultimately drain into the Danube River basin, a major European waterway flowing into the Black Sea. The plant's advanced treatment helps protect downstream aquatic ecosystems and supports the ecological health of the region's surface waters.
