We treat the wastewater of 1.2 million people living in the Greater Copenhagen Area at our three treatment plants Lynetten, Avedøre and Damhusåen.
The wastewater is treated for organic and in-organic solids together with nitrogen and phosporous.
The treated wastewater from Lynetten and Damhusåen is discharged into The Sound via two 1.5 km-long pipes leading into the sea. The treated wastewater from Avedøre is discharged into Køge Bay via two 1.1 km-long pipes leading into the sea.
