Einleiten von Abwasser in öffentliche Abwasseranlagen Genehmigung

If you want to discharge commercial/industrial wastewater into a public wastewater facility or sewer system, you usually need a permit.

If you want to discharge wastewater into a public wastewater system, you need a permit. Under certain conditions, the permit requirement does not apply.

For certain industries and activities (such as chemical industry, paper production, metal processing, cooling water use), pollutants are to be expected in the wastewater that are not sufficiently purified in a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Requirements for this are specified in the industry-specific annexes to the Wastewater Ordinance.

To meet these requirements, special measures and wastewater pretreatment facilities are needed to reduce the pollutant load so that the wastewater can then be treated without harm in a public wastewater treatment plant.

• Application

The other documents required depend on the wastewater (for example, industrial wastewater or commercial wastewater) that is to be discharged into the public wastewater system. More detailed information can be obtained from the responsible office.

If applicable:

• Information on the production of the discharging plant
• Information on the wastewater produced, the sewers and the pre-treatment facilities provided for.

The permit may only be issued if

• the requirements of the Wastewater Ordinance applicable to the wastewater are met,
• the public sewage treatment plant can adequately treat the wastewater, and
• the wastewater is pretreated at the discharging plant, if necessary, in such a way that the preceding requirements are met.

• You can apply for the permit to discharge wastewater into public wastewater systems at the responsible office.
• You fill in the application forms and submit them with all the required documents.
• The competent body will review your application.
• If all the necessary requirements are met, your application can be approved.
• You will receive a permit to discharge wastewater into public wastewater systems
