Abstract

Centralised wastewater collection and treatment plants are inadequate because of high management costs and technological requirements, especially where population density is low and dispersed houses are present. Decentralized wastewater management appears to be a sustainable alternative. The aim is to study the feasibility of upgrading existing Imhoff tanks into Upflow-Imhoff tanks. Biogas is produced in anaerobic conditions; both physical and biological removal are enhanced (TSS90% and COD95%)
