Wastewate
r
Wastewater, also written as waste water, is any water
that has been adversely affected in quality by anthropogenic
influence. Anthropogenic influence refers to environmental
pollution and pollutants originating in human activity (Clescerl
et al, 2008).

Residential Sources (Domestic Wastewater)
Although the word sewage usually brings toilets to
mind, it is actually used to describe all types of wastewater
generated from every room in a house.

Urine is an aqueous solution of greater than 95% water, with the remaining constituents, in order of
decreasing concentration urea 9.3 g/L, chloride 1.87 g/L, sodium 1.17 g/L, potassium 0.750 g/L,
creatinine 0.670 g/L and other dissolved ions, inorganic and organic compounds (proteins,hormones,
metabolites).

Volatile Organic
Compounds
Volatile organic
compounds (VOCs)
are organic chemicals
that
have a high vapor pressure at
ordinary room temperature.
Their high vapor pressure
results from a low boiling point,
which causes large numbers
of molecules to evaporate or
sublimate from the liquid or
solid
form
of
the compound and enter the
surrounding air.

Screening
Physical processes are the first step in the wastewater treatment. This means that
things are physically removed from the wastewater. In fact, it removes about 60 percent of
the suspended solids in the influent.
