Wastewater Integrated Selection Environment: A UK Model Comprising Regulation, Reslience and Sustainability

在过去的10年里，英国水务行业做出了巨大的努力，以了解污水中微污染物的来源和普遍程度，以及它们通过现有和新的处理工艺的命运。在这一努力之后，水行业需要制定战略，以改善当前和未来处理厂的最终污水质量，同时制定新的限制性环境法规，促进污水处理厂的可持续和弹性管理。该项目的重点是开发决策工具，结合创新技术、去除机制和备选方案评估过程，以尽量减少排放中微污染物的影响。

In the last 10 years, the UK water industry has made a significant effort to understand the sources and prevalence of micropollutants is sewage as well as their fate through existing and novel treatment processes. After this effort, the water industry requires strategies to improve the quality of final effluents in current and future treatment works in light new restrictive environmental regulations promoting the sustainable and resilient management of wastewater works. This project focuses on the development of decision tools combining innovative technologies, removal mechanisms, and options appraisal processes to minimise the impact of micropollutants in discharges.
