Project overview

The Brest Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant serves the city of Brest in western Belarus, providing wastewater treatment infrastructure within the Western Bug river catchment.

The facility incorporates biological wastewater treatment and clarification, with circular sedimentation infrastructure designed for the separation of suspended solids and biological sludge.

The treatment system includes clarification basins with documented scraper bridge diameters of 30 and 40 metres.

Wastewater treatment in Brest is particularly significant because treated effluent enters the Western Bug river system, which connects through the Vistula to the Baltic Sea.

The city's wider wastewater modernisation programme has focused on improving treatment efficiency, reducing nitrogen and phosphorus discharges, and strengthening environmental protection within the river catchment.

The project illustrates the relationship between municipal wastewater treatment, solids separation and regional water quality.
