Tyszowce Wastewater Treatment Plant, województwo lubelskie, Poland

The Tyszowce wastewater treatment plant is located in the town of Tyszowce, in województwo lubelskie, eastern Poland. It serves a small population of 75 residents, reflecting the rural character of the area. The plant is part of the municipal infrastructure managed by the local authorities. The facility provides secondary treatment, which is the standard required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations with a population equivalent below 2,000. The plant has a designed capacity of 400 m³ per day, with an actual discharge volume of 10.69 m³ per day, indicating significant spare capacity. The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Bug River, a major tributary of the Narew River and then the Vistula River, flowing into the Baltic Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the local water quality and the downstream aquatic environment.

The Tyszowce plant discharges into the local water network that feeds into the Huczwa River, a tributary of the Bug River. The Bug River flows northward along the Polish-Ukrainian border before joining the Narew River, which then flows into the Vistula and finally the Baltic Sea. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is an important ecological corridor in the region. The plant's secondary treatment helps reduce organic pollution and nutrient loads, contributing to the health of downstream water bodies.
