Good afternoon, my name is ...

Good afternoon, my name is Emilio and I work for a water management company from Vienna, Austria. We are specialized in wastewater treatment based on SBR technology. We have developed a lot of decentralized WWTP around the world, in Croatia, Maldives island, Austria, Oman, and many countries more. From my experience i can say that the decentralized WWTP presents many advantages in comparison with centralized WWTP, in small communities, rural areas, turistic areas, etc. In terms of investment costs a decentralized WWTP is much more cheaper if compared with the pipeworking necessary to transport the wastewater toward the centralized collectar and afterwards to the central WWTP. As always, it is necessary to estimate correctly the total costs before taking a conclusive decision.
