ROWP SC APA PROD SA Suc Geoagiu Bai is a wastewater treatment plant located in Geoagiu, Hunedoara County, Romania. It serves a small population of 235 residents, reflecting its role as a local facility for the Geoagiu-Băi area. The plant is situated in the Mureș River basin, a key waterway in central Romania. The plant provides primary treatment, which involves physical processes like sedimentation to remove solids. With a designed capacity of 2000 m³/day and a current discharge volume of 62.17 m³/day, the facility operates well below its capacity. Under Romanian and EU regulations, small agglomerations like this may be subject to less stringent treatment requirements, though primary treatment is a basic level that reduces suspended solids and organic load. The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Mureș River and then into the Tisza River, a major tributary of the Danube. The Mureș River supports diverse aquatic life and is an important ecological corridor in the region. The plant's operation helps protect downstream water quality in this sensitive river system.
