ROWP Primaria SAVARSIN Wastewater Treatment Plant, Săvârșin, Romania

ROWP Primaria SAVARSIN is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Săvârșin, Arad County, Romania. The facility serves a small population of 400 residents, reflecting its role in a rural community. The plant is situated in the historic Domeniul Regal Săvîrșin area, near the Mureș River. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations with a population equivalent (PE) between 2,000 and 10,000. Although the population served here is below that threshold, the plant's designed capacity of 3000 m³/day suggests it can accommodate seasonal or future growth. The discharge volume is reported at 9.93 (likely in thousands of m³/year or similar units). The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Mureș River, a major tributary of the Tisza River, and then into the Danube River and the Black Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the Mureș River from untreated wastewater, supporting aquatic life and downstream water quality in the Tisza-Danube basin.

The plant discharges into the Mureș River basin, which flows into the Tisza River and then the Danube, ultimately reaching the Black Sea. The Mureș River supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and is an important migratory corridor for fish species. The secondary treatment provided helps reduce organic pollutants and nutrients, mitigating eutrophication risks in downstream water bodies.
