Elongated Stabilization Ponds with Partitions: A Solution for Small Communities Sewage Disposal
Publication: Bridging the Gap: Meeting the World's Water and Environmental Resources Challenges
Abstract
This document considers important aspects related to the theory, design, and use of elongated stabilization ponds with partitions as a technology to facilitate the sanitary disposal of sewage from small communities. The main objective of this paper is to present a technology for wastewater stabilization ponds design that produces effluents with a very low bacterial (Fecal coliform or Escherichia coli) concentrations without the use of disinfection. This effluent can be used for irrigation in accordance with WHO Health Guidelines for the Use of Wastewater in Agriculture and Acuaculture.
