Oczyszczalnia sciekow w Lubomyslu - Wastewater Treatment Plant in Lubomyśle, Poland

Oczyszczalnia sciekow w Lubomyslu is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Lubomyśle, a village in the Greater Poland Voivodeship (województwo wielkopolskie), Poland. The plant serves a population of 6,665 and is part of the wastewater infrastructure for the Ślesin commune within Konin County. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard biological treatment required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. The designed capacity is 10,310 m³/day, and the current discharge volume is 950.32 m³/day, indicating operational headroom. The plant operates under Polish regulations implementing EU directives, with permits issued by regional water authorities. The treated effluent is discharged into local surface waters, which ultimately drain into the Warta River basin and then to the Oder River, flowing into the Baltic Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the local aquatic environment and downstream ecosystems from untreated sewage.

The plant discharges into a small watercourse that feeds into the Warta River, a major tributary of the Oder River. The Oder flows into the Szczecin Lagoon and then the Baltic Sea. The local watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is part of a region with agricultural and natural areas. Effective treatment helps prevent eutrophication and protects downstream habitats, including the ecologically sensitive Baltic Sea coastal zone.
