ROWP CL Moara Vlasiei Wastewater Treatment Plant, Dascălu, Romania

ROWP CL Moara Vlasiei is a wastewater treatment plant located in Dascălu, Ilfov County, Romania. It serves a population of approximately 654 residents, providing secondary treatment to municipal wastewater. The plant has a designed capacity of 5,800 cubic meters per day and currently discharges a volume of 103.89 cubic meters per day. As a secondary treatment facility, the plant meets the requirements of the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC), which mandates secondary treatment for agglomerations of this scale. The plant's capacity utilization is low relative to its design, indicating potential for future growth or seasonal variations in flow. The treated effluent from ROWP CL Moara Vlasiei is discharged into local surface waters, which eventually drain into the Argeș River basin and ultimately the Danube River. The Danube flows into the Black Sea, making the plant's operations relevant to the ecological health of the Danube Delta and the Black Sea coastal environment.

The plant discharges into the Argeș River basin, a tributary of the Danube River. The Danube flows through multiple countries before reaching the Black Sea, supporting diverse aquatic life and important migratory corridors. The Black Sea is a semi-enclosed sea with limited water exchange, making it sensitive to nutrient pollution from upstream sources.
