ROWP SC AQUATERM AG 98 Curtea de Argeș Wastewater Treatment Plant

ROWP SC AQUATERM AG 98 CURTEA DE ARGES is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Curtea de Argeș, Argeș County, Romania. The plant serves a population of approximately 37,548, classifying it as a medium-sized agglomeration under Romanian and EU regulations. As a plant operating under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive 91/271/EEC, it is required to provide secondary treatment as a minimum. For agglomerations between 10,000 and 150,000 population equivalent, secondary treatment is mandatory, with tertiary treatment required if the receiving water body is designated as a sensitive area. The plant discharges treated wastewater into the Argeș River, a tributary of the Danube. The Argeș River flows southward through the Carpathian foothills and eventually joins the Danube, which drains into the Black Sea. The plant plays a key role in protecting the water quality of the Argeș River and the downstream Danube ecosystem.

The plant discharges into the Argeș River, which flows into the Danube River and ultimately the Black Sea. The Argeș River supports diverse aquatic life and is an important water resource for the region. The downstream Danube Delta is a major ecological zone, home to numerous bird species and fish. Protecting water quality in the Argeș is critical for maintaining the health of these downstream environments.
