, Germany, North Rhine-Westphalia, Dinslaken - Emschermuendung into the Rhine. Cyclists take a break at the lookout point. On the right is the decommissioned STEAG coal-fired power plant at Voerde. The discharge of the Emscher into the Rhine is being moved from Dinslaken to Voerde, about 500 meters to the north. Fish will then be able to swim barrier-free up the new Emscher from the Rhine through a newly created floodplain. The Emscher has been completely free of wastewater since January 2022 following the construction of a parallel sewer. The river was previously an open, above-ground combined sewer with rainwater and wastewater.
