Applying for the discharge of wastewater into private wastewater systems

Description

If you want to discharge wastewater into a private wastewater system, you need a permit. Under certain conditions, the permit requirement does not apply. You apply for the permit from the responsible authority.

Public wastewater facilities are available to the general public, private facilities are available to a restricted group of users, for example companies in a chemical park.

For certain industries and activities (such as the 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 set out in the sector-specific annexes to the Waste Water Ordinance.

In order to comply with these requirements, special measures and wastewater pre-treatment plants are required to reduce the pollutant load so that the wastewater can then be purified without harm in a public or private wastewater treatment plant.

Approval may only be granted if

  • the requirements of the Waste Water Ordinance applicable to the waste water are complied with,
  • the private sewage treatment plant can adequately purify the wastewater and
  • the wastewater is pre-treated by the discharging company in such a way that the above requirements are met.
  • Application
  • Further required documents depend on the wastewater (industrial wastewater, commercial wastewater) that is to be discharged into the private wastewater system

You must submit the application at least one month before the wastewater is discharged.

The processing time depends on the quality and scope of the applications and documents submitted.
