Wastewater Indicators

 

Population with access to improved sanitation systems	%	98.3 (2012)
WW volume collected	million m3/ year	491.5 (2012)
WW Volume treated	million m3/ year	487 (2012)

Indicator 3 : Access to Sanitation

 

The indicator refers to the percentage of the population with access to facilities which hygienically separate human excreta from human, animal and insect contact. The improved sanitation systems are those installed in homes or in the immediate vicinity, for the evacuation of human feces (public sanitation network, septic tank, etc.). The definition of “improved sanitation system” provided by the Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and Sanitation by the World Health Organization and UNICEF is: Connection to a public sewer, connection to a septic system, pour-flush latrine, access to a pit latrine, ventilated improved pit latrine.

Indicator 4 : Municipal Wastewater Management

 

The indicator refers to the volume of municipal wastewater collected by public sewage networks, septic systems and cesspits, and the volume of wastewater treated in wastewater treatment plants. Here reference is made to primary (mechanical) treatment that removes part of the suspended solids, and secondary (biological) treatment that uses aerobic or anaerobic micro-organisms to decompose most of the organic matter and retain some of the nutrients (around 20 - 30 %). Tertiary (advanced) treatment removes the organic matter even more efficiently.
