Leveraging industrial and municipal wastewater treatment synergies in Mondi Štĕtí

All waste water genereated from our production processes is treated in wastewater treatment plants on-site and/or off-site before being discharged to the aquatic environment to ensure wastewater quality meets regulatory requirements.  

Mondi Štĕtí (Czech Republic) runs our largest industrial wastewater treatment plant, which is the second largest in Czech Republic. Calculated based on municipal waste water, it has a treatment capacity for a population of 600,000. 

Our mill´s wastewater treatment plant not only treats industrial waste water from pulp and paper production, it also accepts municipal waste water from surrounding communities. The combination of waste water types creates synergies because municipal wastewater contains organic nutrients enhancing the treatment process. 

In 2023, Mondi Štětí evaluated further technical improvements and installed new screens. It is planned to further modernise our activation tanks and other infrastructure.  

Mondi Štětí is continuously working on enhancing and modernising its wastewater treatment facilities with a focus on improving efficiency and incorporating advanced technologies to ensure that the wastewater treatment processes keep pace with the increasing production capacities and evolving environmental standards.
