Genehmigung zum Einleiten von Abwasser in öffentliche Abwasseranlagen beantragen

If you wish to discharge commercial/industrial wastewater into a public wastewater system or sewer system, you generally require a permit.

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

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 treated in a public sewage treatment plant without causing any harm.

• Application

The other documents required depend on the wastewater (e.g. industrial wastewater or commercial wastewater) that is to be discharged into the public wastewater system. You can obtain more detailed information from the responsible office.

If applicable:

• Information on the production of the discharging company
• Information on the wastewater produced, the sewers and the planned pre-treatment facilities

Approval may only be granted if

• the requirements of the Waste Water Ordinance applicable to the waste water are complied with,
• the public 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.

• You can apply for a permit to discharge wastewater into public wastewater systems at the responsible office.
• You fill out the application form and submit it with all the necessary documents.

• If all the necessary requirements are met, your application can be approved.
• You will receive a permit to discharge wastewater into public wastewater facilities
