Non-conventional Sewerage
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conventional wastewater collection systems are installed to remove human wastes from households in cities and urban areas. This system demands high water supply rates as the wastes are flushed through pipes using water that flows under gravity. This system is capital extensive, and has been found to be not suitable in urban areas with smaller population sizes. Also, for the same reason, not suitable for urban areas of developing countries, where the water supply rates also are low.
