Be careful what you put in the toilet

Two thirds of your town gas is based on biogas, where we take your wastewater (sewage), treat it, process it and use it in town gas. Therefore, the “cleaner” the wastewater is, the less we have to treat it before we can use it in town gas.

We can best utilise wastewater if it only contains poo, pee and paper – to be perfectly frank. Wet wipes, cotton pads and cotton buds can get stuck in the pipes, and then we have to use a lot of resources to flush the system. Likewise, fat in your drains can create a blockage. So, think about what you throw in the toilet.
