U.a.s.b. anaerobic technology for low cost and sustainable wastewater treatment and re-use in mediterranean towns and villages.

Objective

Implementation and evaluation (2 years of R & D) of three demonstration U.A.S.B (anaerobic) Wastewater Treatment Plants(W.W.T.P.) in small towns of Mediterranean Area, to intro-duke this typical "tropical" technology in the Region to reduce investment and O & M costs. Linked R & D with similar demonstration plants in Latin America. Commercialisation of the by-products (biogas/sludge/treated water) to support organic agriculture, to favours neighbours and to transform a W.W.T.P. into a tool for local sustainable development.
