Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the appropriate accounting head for factory wastewater removal charges incurred after production. It is generally considered a factory overhead cost. Depending on the nature of the charges, such as fixed municipality fees or costs related to PCB compliance and STP (Sewage Treatment Plant), it can be classified under 'Waste & Scrap (Factory Overhead)' or 'STP charges'.

It is one of the costs of conversion, so this cost will be included into closing inventory of finished goods if material waste is dissolved in it. Sry, 

Forgot, if you are paying fixed charges to municipality, it must be treated as factory overheads.

You should show it under Waste & Scrap(Factory Overhead)
Yes, it is other Factory OH costs. Also, we don't create Accounts Head for Waste Water Removal. Bcoz, some category of waste water is related to PCB compliance. You may book under STP charges
