Environmental context
The plant discharges into the Vistula River basin, which drains into the Baltic Sea. The Baltic Sea is a semi-enclosed sea with limited water exchange, making it sensitive to nutrient pollution. Secondary treatment reduces organic load and nutrients, helping to mitigate eutrophication risks in the downstream environment.
