TREATMENT COSTS


Secondary treatment

The treatment costs, including  capital, operation and maintenance costs, have been obtained assuming a daily pro-capita discharge of 300 l/EI-d. If you want to meet the treatment cost for different values of daily pro-capita discharge, the following link must be activated.

Treatment cost for daily pro-capita discharge of 300 l/EI-d

The unit treatment costs, expressed in £/m3, have been obtained with the following equations:

 x < 30.000 EI:

y = 834 – 0.0112 x

 

 x >=30.000 AI:

y = 563 – 0.0008 x

y = unit cost in £/m3

x = equivalent inhabitants (EI)

 

The following Table shows the unit costs for the principal capacity plant.
