Controlling negative effects of sewage water overflow

Jure Margeta ; Građevinsko-arhitektonski fakultet Split

Abstract

The mixed sewage disposal system, characterized by overflow facilities, through which untreated waste waters and rain water are together evacuated into the final discharge zone, is described. These overflow facilities are built primarily for economic reasons. Overflowing waters pollute environment, and must therefore be controlled. This control is complex, expensive and time-consuming. Development of national strategy, and the long-term overflow facility management plan, are the main preconditions for successful resolution of this problem.
