Q&A - Participants (10 minutes)
The current Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive, adopted in 1991, created harmonised guidelines for wastewater management in order to reduce pollution in waterways. The Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD) creates a legal framework for the collection and treatment of wastewater in urban areas. It covers the collection, treatment and discharge of urban wastewater and the treatment and discharge of wastewater from certain industries.
The aim of the directive is to protect the environment from the adverse effects of the above-mentioned sewage discharges. During the webinar, we will try to review the new microbiological requirements in the context of public health, as well as briefly present the technological problems.
