Support for clean waters in Ansbach

The sewage treatment plant in Ansbach receives significant financial support from the Free State of Bavaria to optimize its wastewater treatment processes. With a funding notice of up to 6.7 million euros, the construction of a fourth cleaning level is made possible to eliminate trace fabrics from the wastewater. This measure is an important step to improve water protection for around 44,000 residents of the city and the surrounding region.

The goal: maximum wastewater quality

Environment Minister Thorsten Glauber (Free Voters) emphasized the importance of the fourth cleaning level for wastewater treatment during his visit in Ansbach. "Clean water is one of the most important future topics," he said, adding that wastewater treatment plays a central role at the highest level. With this new technology, water emissions from the sewage treatment plants into nature are improved sustainably and relieves the environment.

  • The fourth cleaning levels should raise the water quality to a new level.
  • Around 1.8 billion cubic meters of wastewater are treated annually in Bavaria.
  • When selecting the systems, attention was paid to the technical point of view.

comprehensive strategy for water protection

The Bavarian Ministry of Environment has also launched a special funding program for sewage treatment plants. The aim is to proact with innovative techniques. Around 90 sewage treatment plants are strategically selected and retrofitted with the fourth cleaning level. These measures are part of the long -term strategy "Water Zukunft Bavaria 2050", which is intended to advance the continuous improvement of water quality in the coming decades.

Financial support for municipalities

For municipalities in Bavaria, the expansion of the wastewater infrastructure is financially attractive. The ministry promotes the costs for the construction of the fourth cleaning levels with a grant of 50 percent - in certain cases even up to 70 percent for costs that are incurred by the end of 2024. Cities like Lindau, Erlangen and Schweinfurt have already benefited from similar grants.

conclusion: a step into a sustainable future

The implementation of the fourth cleaning level in Ansbach is not only a technical upgrade, but also a step towards a sustainable and environmentally conscious future. It shows how important the quality of water is for society and how investments in modern wastewater technologies can have a positive impact on the environment. Bayern thus sets an example for environmental protection and the importance of responsible water management.
