Service Portal - Environment & Nature

Erlangen is an eco-city—and not just since 2019, when the city declared a climate emergency. Environmental, natural, and climate protection have long played a central role here. However, to effectively protect the atmosphere, flora and fauna, the soil, and people from harmful influences, we need a wealth of information, (funding) services, and, of course, binding regulations. Here you’ll find everything you need to know—from species conservation to environmental consulting.

Erlangen Wastewater Treatment Plant - 2030 Expansion Plan: Trace Substance Removal (4th Treatment Stage)

A fourth treatment stage is necessary to treat the wastewater appropriately before it flows back into the Regnitz River.
