Radwanice Wastewater Treatment Plant, Radwanice | Poland

Radwanice wastewater treatment plant is located in the village of Radwanice, within the powiat polkowicki of województwo dolnośląskie, Poland. The facility served the local community as part of the region's municipal wastewater infrastructure. The plant operated with secondary treatment, which is the standard required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this scale. Its designed capacity was 3,703 cubic meters per day, indicating it was sized for a moderate population. The plant is now closed. Treated effluent from the plant would have discharged into local watercourses within the Odra River basin, which ultimately flows into the Baltic Sea. The region's water bodies support diverse aquatic life and are part of a broader ecological network important for water quality and biodiversity.

The plant is located inland in the Odra River basin, which drains into the Baltic Sea via the Szczecin Lagoon. The local watershed includes small streams and agricultural areas, where treated wastewater discharge must meet EU standards to protect downstream ecosystems. The Baltic Sea is a sensitive brackish environment, and nutrient reduction from wastewater treatment is critical to combat eutrophication.
