Oberhausen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany - Emscher conversion, new Emscher AKE sewer, here the new Oberhausen pumping station, Germany's largest wastewater pumping station, pumps up to 16,500 litres of wastewater per second from a depth of around 40 metres with 10 pumps. In the back on the left, new river meadows for better flood protection. In the back on the right, the OQ Chemicals plant Ruhrchemie. The ecological conversion of the Emscher system consists of the construction of a central sewage system in the Ruhr area, the construction of sewage canals and the renaturation of the Emscher and its tributaries.
