WRRC Seminar - Wastewater Treatment and Excess Sludge Handling Practices FSM
February 6, 3:00pm - 4:15pmMānoa Campus, Watanabe 112
Assessment of Wastewater Treatment Facilities and Excess Sludge Handling Practices in the Federated States of Micronesia
Abstract:
A survey of wastewater treatment methods in the Federated States of Micronesia revealed a lack
of functional treatment systems and conditions that could lead to adverse environmental impacts
and public health concerns. Due to a lack of operable equipment, operators do not know the
amount or composition of the wastewater entering their plants and in at least one case raw
sewage is being discharged directly into the ocean. In addition, waste excess sludge is often
taken and used by local residents without adequate prior treatment. Comparisons of methods
being used and problems encountered at different locations in the islands will provide valuable
information needed by decision makers to develop sustainable treatment practices throughout
Micronesia.
