Well, you see, we don't want this thing out here in the sticks. They say, it stinks. And it's your sewage.

Re: Sewerage Treatment Plant Zürich

Makes perfect sense, as it is close to the source of the raw material and therefore reducing transportation costs and hence a lower carbon footprint.

Kudos to Zurich!

Re: Sewerage Treatment Plant Zürich

Generally, they need to be near lakes or rivers, and at a low elevation.

So downtown Zurich sounds perfect!

Nonsense.

They build it against the city border.

Next time you should consider where you rent a house instead of complaining afterwards that you picked the wrong one.

I have no clue? You're a joke, (and not even a funny one)

Also have a look on the map and suggest us a better place within city limits.

Oh come on, it's nowhere near the middle of Zürich. I live 5km from the centre and this place is a further 3km in the opposite direction. And when it was built it probably was the sticks, but the suburb that you live in has spread up to it.

No it wasnt. It was in the industrial core of Zurich, connected to the factory cannal where the factories dumped their wastewater in. It still borders to a recycling center for solid waste... and the biogas storage on the other side of it. And there is a reason why it is where it is: Its at the city border point from where the river flows into the next canton ;-)

And what exactly about the concept of "city limits" is too difficult for you to understand?

I said "we in the sticks don't want it", I don't see you and me as an item and I do live in the sticks.

1. That is uphill and not next to the water and thus simply stupid.
2. You did not answer the question.
