Wastewater treatment plant projects in Őrség, Hungary

Magyarszombatfa and Őriszentpéter are located in the sensitive catchment area of Lake Balaton. Therefore, the proper drainage and treatment of the area had to be solved with special attention but in a short time. Due to the fragmented network of settlements, the treatment of wastewater had to be considered from both an economic and an environmental point of view.  Pureco's experts expanded and upgraded the existing wastewater treatment plant in Őriszentpéter and built a new SBR treatment plant in Magyarszombatfa. The great advantage of this space-saving solution is that all the treatment processes take place in a single basin, so there is no need for a final sedimentation tank, its engineering, nitrogen and phosphorus removal are highly efficient and operation is simple. No new structures were built during the reconstruction, but the technology and the machinery were replaced.  To ensure the effluent limit value, a new after-filtration unit was installed, as the aim was to achieve a quality of treatment that meets water quality protection requirements.
