Abstract
Waste stabilization ponds for treating raw sewage are used in smaller municipalities where provision of conventional treatment is often a financial burden. This study has three main parts: (1) collection and analysis of basic data on existing installations; (2) field studies of selected ponds for variability in design, loading and operation; (3) controlled studies on experimental units for the purpose of obtaining fundamental knowledge prerequisite to development of basic design and operation formulations and criteria.
