SamenvattingLow-tech, decentralized systems serving villages and towns with less than 10,000 population equivalents (PE) have decisive advantages in terms of sustainability and cost effectiveness. Ponds and constructed wetland systems are extensive wastewater treatment options which can meet the requirements of the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, even for sensitive areas. This publication provides some easy-to-understand guidance on taking decisions in wastewater management in villages and small towns for decision-makers at ministerial and municipal level, for authorities and utilities, as well as consultants and NGOs working in the field of sanitation and wastewater management. This publication presents examples of sustainable sanitation and wastewater management from several EU countries, including centralized and on-site systems as well as innovative concepts.
