12. Bark and charcoal filters for greywater treatment : pollutant removal and recycling opportunities
Sammanfattning : Water scarcity, inappropriate sanitation and wastewater pollution are critically important global issues. Greywater is a sustainable water source for recycling, so this thesis examined simple, robust, low-cost alternatives for on-site treatment of greywater to irrigation water quality. LÄS MER
13. On-site sanitation systems - An integrated assessment of treatment efficiency and sustainability
Sammanfattning : Small on-site sanitation systems for wastewater collection and treatment are prevalent in suburban and rural areas in many countries. However, these systems often underperform, causing potential impact to the receiving waters and increasing the risks to public health, thus hindering the overall sustainability of the systems.
