MBR Technology for Wastewater Reclamation in Rural Areas

摘要

Bega Valley Shire, approximately 450 miles south of Sydney, Australia, is the largest local government in coastal New South Wales and has a population of more than 30,000 people. The capacity of the valley's wastewater treatment systems was being stretched by urban growth as well as by seasonal population increases. Four villages in the valley without sewer service were at risk for environmental and public health issues as a result of discharge from septic tanks. The Bega Valley Shire Council and Tenix Alliance, a company that provides services to Australia's and New Zealand's utility markets, worked together to solve these problems.
