Tabla de Contenidos:
- Introduction to on-site and decentralized wastewater treatment and typical components of DEWATS systems. Discusses pre-treatment, primary treatment, secondary treatment, disinfection, reuse and recycling
- The DEWATS decision model
- critical inputs (source and site) and the DEWATS decision-making process
- Characterizing the Source by determining hydraulic and organic loading
- Identifying fluctuations in flow, anddentifying other source factors that might impact upon the technology decisions
