ROWP SC TRICOMSERV SRL Ghidfalau - Secondary Wastewater Treatment Plant in Angheluș, Romania

ROWP SC TRICOMSERV SRL Ghidfalau is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Angheluș, a village in Ghidfalău commune, Covasna County, Romania. The plant serves a small population of 268 residents, reflecting its role in a rural community within the Transylvanian region. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard biological treatment required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. With a designed capacity of 800 m³/day and a current discharge volume of 41.39 m³/day, the plant operates well below its capacity, indicating potential for future growth or seasonal variability. The treated effluent is discharged into local watercourses that eventually drain into the Olt River basin, a major tributary of the Danube. The Olt River flows southward through the Carpathian Mountains and into the Danube, which ultimately reaches the Black Sea. The plant's operation helps protect the local watershed and downstream aquatic ecosystems from untreated pollution.

The plant discharges into small streams in the Olt River basin, which flows through the Carpathian Mountains and joins the Danube River before reaching the Black Sea. The local watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is part of a region known for its natural landscapes. Secondary treatment reduces organic pollutants and suspended solids, safeguarding water quality in downstream rivers and the Danube Delta ecosystem.
