ROWP SC ACET SA SUCEAVA AG SIRET Wastewater Treatment Plant, Siret, Romania

ROWP SC ACET SA SUCEAVA AG SIRET is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located on Strada 9 Mai in Siret, Suceava County, Romania. The facility serves a population of approximately 3,160 people, classifying it as a small agglomeration under Romanian and EU regulations. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the minimum required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for freshwater discharges from agglomerations of this size. With a designed capacity of 12,000 m³/day and a current discharge volume of 71.81 m³/day, the plant operates well below its capacity, indicating potential for future growth or seasonal variability. The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Siret River, a major tributary of the Danube. The Danube then flows into the Black Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the Siret River and downstream ecosystems from untreated wastewater pollution.

The plant discharges into the Siret River basin, which flows into the Danube River and eventually the Black Sea. The Siret River supports diverse aquatic life and is an important ecological corridor in northeastern Romania. Protecting this waterway from nutrient and pathogen pollution is critical for maintaining water quality in the Danube Delta and Black Sea coastal zone.
