Liquid Waste

In recent years, rapid industrial development combined with complete urbanization has led to rapid production of urban and industrial wastewater.

Municipal wastewater is characterized as liquid waste that comes mainly from sanitary facilities, while industrial waste is characterized as that of industrial or craft facilities, which are created during a production process and may contain residues of the materials used. By extension, the disposal of waste to a recipient requires full knowledge of all the quality characteristics of the waste, in order to apply appropriate methods of environmental protection.

For this purpose, i.e. the protection of the environment, wastewater treatment plants have been installed nationwide (Biological treatments).
