Design of a waste water treatment plant:
questions: for how much population equivalents (p.e.)
expansion stages!
which technology
ensuring a stable power supply
what happens with the sludge

Selection of the basic form of wastewater disposal
Which towns/villages are to be developed and how
Where should which sewage treatment plants be built?
How should the resulting sludge be treated?

Size of the wwtp
Number of inhabitants * target connection degree
+ (realistic increase of population ???)
+ Population equivalents for tourism, industry, trades
Balkans Joint Conference and Exhibition, Tirana 7-9 November 2018
Technical design of the wwtp
Treatment technology depends on size and boundaryconditions (receiving water, ...), as similar as possible
minimum two parallel treatment lines(totaly separately opreable, that means also the aerationsystem)
with significant tourism: four parallel treatment lines(totaly separately opreable, that means also the aerationsystem)

Technical design of the wwtp
Fine screen 3 mm
corrosion-resistant equipment (no galvanized steel)
separate regulation of oxygen supply for eachtreatment line (for activated sludge systems)
...
