WASTEWATER NETWORK CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS

  • Conference paper
Integrated Urban Water Resources Management

Abstract

Sewer and storm water systems in cities worldwide suffer from ageing and inappropriate wastewater networks. This challenge has to be met by systematic upgrading and preventive maintenance. It is necessary to analyse the current performance of the wastewater networks, to determine the system bottlenecks that cause system vulnerability on floods in city areas and pollution of receiving waters. The next task is then to use this information for selecting and ranking upgrading projects to improve the situation. CARE-S is a computer based system developed to meet this challenge. It is designed for sewer and storm water network rehabilitation planning.
