Project of guidance for promotion of domestic wastewater water treatment and reuse

Absrtact
The project applied performance tests at twenty building sewer treatment facilities, include both community and public sewer systems. A recommendation report was generated afterward based on the test results to improve the overall performance of the domestic building sewer treatment facilities. Regarding to the “pre-fabricated sewage treatment facilities standard and authorization of management system (預鑄式建築物污水處理設施業者審定登記管理)”, it is recommended to include the professional license as part of the qualification requirements, and further requiring verification at production, marketing and installation stages. In order to coordinate the sewer treatment facility maintenance with the property management concept, the project developed a package of teaching materials to be used during the “Apartment Building Management Staff Training” seminar. In addition, a license regulation for the “Building Sewer Treatment Facility Staff” was drafted and provided to the EPA for future reference. The project assisted the EPA to promote various-levels of sewer treatment improvement programs and measures to reduce overall sewerage pollutions. In the meantime, the project finished the contents of the “Septic Tank Periodic Cleaning Guidelines”, the “Community Sewer Treatment Facility Standard Operation Specifications”, and the “Building Sewer Treatment Facility Operation Service Contractor Specifications”. The project assisted the EPA to promote various-levels of sewer treatment improvement programs and measures to reduce overall sewerage pollutions. In the meantime, the project finished the contents of the “Septic Tank Periodic Cleaning Guidelines”, the “Community Sewer Treatment Facility Standard Operation Specifications”, and the “Building Sewer Treatment Facility Operation Service Contractor Specifications”. A technologic service team was established to assist in consulting and installing for water reuse. Ten places were selected to draw up the water reuse system where there are potential for water reuse by the team. The selected places include elementary school, community, entertainment place and a place of water resource shortage. The project established guidelines of technology and assessment for domestic wastewater reuse. Furthermore, simple computer programs which apply to five water reuse patterns was designed and these programs could be downloaded freely to assess required facilities and cost- benefit analysis for a potential water reuse place. A website was draw up to promote the achievement of model places where were set up by EPA in 2006-2007. The eight places which accepted EPA government subsidies in 2006-2007 were investigated in order to assess effects about water reuse. The items of assessment included reused water quality safety, cost- benefit and environmental benefit analysis. According to drawback assessment, some improvement ways were recommended to assist these places in reasonable operation of water reuse systems. A manuscript of the handbook for domestic wastewater reclamation and reuse in these places was accomplished
