TY - GEN AU - Odegaard, Mallvard TI - Appropriate technology for waste water treatment in coastal tourist areas PY - 1989/// KW - WATER TREATMENT KW - WASTE WATERS KW - COASTAL POLLUTION KW - TOURIST AREAS N2 - The composition of waste water from tourist areas is discussed. Since such a significant part of the containments in waste water is associated with particles, a good particle removal should be the first step in the treatment of waste water. In coastal areas it is recommended that coagulation with lime should be used. Special attention is drawn to the lime/seawater process where 2-5 vol- of seawater is added to the effluent resulting in several process improvements for low-cost treatment. The use of the lime/seawater process in a pond system is discussed; ER -
