	Wastewater
		Wastewater flows originating within the communities of Alpine, Lakeside, Winter Gardens, Spring Valley and East Otay Mesa are transmitted to the City of San Diego metro system for treatment and disposal.
		From the time wastewater enters any of the six treatment facilities it (influent) undergoes physical, biological and chemical treatment for many hours before the treatment process is complete and the treated water is discharged via controlled irrigation or percolation processes.
		Next, the wastewater enters the primary clarifiers where the flow is slowed to allow the heavier solid particles to settle and the lighter solids to float.

	City of College Station - Wastewater Treatment
		The goal of wastewater treatment is to remove organic matter, trash, and disease-causing microorganisms so that the effluent, or treated wastewater, may be safely discharged into the environment.
		Wastewater in College Station is treated using screening and grit removal (to remove grease, grit, and large objects), aeration, clarification, sludge digestion and dewatering, and disinfection.
		The wastewater treatment process begins at the Headworks, where floating material, oils and greases, sand and silt and trash are removed from the raw wastewater for disposal at the landfill.

	InterLinc: Wastewater Treatment Process
		Once the settleable solids have been removed, the wastewater enters a biological reactor or aeration basin, which is called the biological treatment phase.
		To optimize the metabolism of these microorganisms in treating wastewater, the aeration basins must have adequate oxygen and mixing so that these organisms are in constant contact with their organic food source.
		After wastewater leaves the biological reactors, it is sent to the secondary clarifiers.

	Wastewater Treatment Facility
		The Oconomowoc Wastewater Treatment Facility lies in the rolling countryside of western Waukesha County in the southwest corner of the City of Oconomowoc.
		Wastewater sludge, the byproduct of the treatment process, is processed to reduce volume in a three step system, including air floatation thickening, anaerobic digestion, and gravity thickening.
		The Wastewater Treatment Facility is used as a research center and has hosted visiting engineers and municipal officials from all over the world.

	3.2 Wastewater reuse
		Wastewater reuse in the Caribbean is primarily in the form of irrigation water.
		Wastewater for reuse must be adequately treated, biologically and chemically, to ensure the public health and environmental safety.
		Reuse of wastewater may be seasonal in nature, resulting in the overloading of treatment and disposal facilities during the rainy season; if the wet season is of long duration and/or high intensity, the seasonal discharge of raw wastewaters may occur.

	Household Wastewater (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The amount of oxygen required to ‘stabilize’ wastewater is typically measured as biochemical and chemical ‘oxygen demand.’ Aeration and digestion processes, in the presence of oxygen and organisms, produce stable, low-odor wastewater when given enough time.
		Wastewater is applied by dosing, and it may be recirculated to improve treatment.
		Wastewater treated in such systems is generally lower in bacteria, nitrogen, phosphorus, oxygen demand, suspended solids and organic matter.

	Wastewater Blending (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The details of how a wastewater treatment plant is designed to achieve secondary treatment and meet water quality standards are specified in the CWA permit issued to the plant, and the treatment plant may not discharge any wastewater except in compliance with its permit.
		According to the proposed policy, peak wet weather discharges from wastewater treatment plants that consist of effluent routed around biological or other treatment units blended together with the effluent from the treatment units prior to discharge are not a prohibited bypass and may be authorized in an NPDES permit, if specified requirements are met.
		Even if wastewater blending is demonstrated to be protective of human health, but uncertainty remains as to its legality, this leads to the question of whether or not blending should be available as a wastewater management tool.

		The wastewater is spread over the substrate, allowing the wastewater to flow past the film of microorganisms fixed to the substrate.
		Wastewater treatment processes require careful management to ensure the protection of the water body that receives the discharge.

	Wastewater
		This residential or "domestic" wastewater is carried to the wastewater treatment plant through a network of underground pipes.
		This network of pipes can extend out for miles from the wastewater treatment plant; so to keep flow moving, pump stations are installed at low points along the piping system (sanitary sewer).
		By keeping the wastewater free of pollutants, the biosolids produced is free of pollutants.
