The high construction, operation, and maintenance costs for a centralized conventional wastewater collection and treatment system represent an obstacle for the developing countries in the installment of such a system in rural areas. In this new book the data of different technologies used for sewage treatment in small communities in Egypt was collected. The costs of construction, operation and maintenance of these technologies were also obtained. The costs were estimated based on the actual costs of existing treatment plants in Egypt. In addition to that the existing data of the three implemented USBR systems in Ismailia and Fayoum governorates are shown in the same study. (Imprint: Nova)
