Price: £470
Ref: 04/WW/17/2
ISBN: 1-84057-322-8
This report has been produced as part of a research programme to improve the water industry’s understanding of the presence of priority substances in sewage. Priority substances were analysed in samples taken from 30 wastewater treatment works across England and results have been compared with a comprehensive literature review. This study highlights the fact that certain groups of priority substances arising from diffuse sources are ubiquitous in wastewater. Substances are identified which would cause most concern to the water industry if proposed EC sludge limits and draft water quality standards being proposed in the Water Framework Directive are implemented.
