Environmental context
The plant discharges into the Vistula River basin, which flows northward through Poland and empties into the Baltic Sea. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is an important migratory corridor for fish species. The secondary treatment process helps reduce organic load and nutrients, mitigating eutrophication risks in the Baltic Sea.
