Intermittent Operation of the Extended Aeration Process for Small Systems

Most small wastewater treatment plants , which are based on the activated sludge or variants of the activated sludge process, are generally designed as smaller versions of large-scale plants but without primary settling facilities.

Controlled Unsteady State Processes and Technologies

The mass of contaminants present in domestic and industrial wastewaters, in leachates, groundwaters, and in soils naturally varies with either time or space. These natural and sometimes severe variations are coupled with the uncertainties associated with direct exposure to the environment. In the face of such an unsteadystate behavior, facilities used for the removal of contaminants are often designed with the potentially unrealistic expectation that they can be operated as steady-state systems.

Integrated Water Resources Management in the Lower Jordan Valley Sustainable Management of Available Water Resources with Innovative Technologies - Management of Highly Variable Water Resources in semi-arid Regions SMART-MOVE

Sustainable Management of Available Water Resources with Innovative Technologies - Management of Highly Variable Water Resources in Semi-Arid Regions (SMART-MOVE) is the follow-up and implementation phase of the preceding SMART I and II projects, which aimed at developing a transferable approach for Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) in the Lower Jordan Valley. The objective of one of the work packages was the application of the GIS-based ALLOWS tool to identify potential wastewater management solutions and to provide associated cost indicators for the solutions in the Al-Salt region.
