Algorithm 8. Agglomeration: Article 6 only#

Overview#

Calculate compliance of an agglomeration with Article 6 of the 1991 urban wastewater treatment directive.

Compliance depends on:

  • treatment type at connected plants, and

  • load entering plants.

Simplified Logic#

1. No primary treatment required#

  • → NR

  • (exit_leaf = 08-01)

2. At least one primary treatment plant exists#

  • If any plant compliance = NC and load entering NC plants > 1% of collected load and ≥ 2000 p.e. →

    • NC

    • (exit_leaf = 08-02)

  • Else, if any plant compliance = PD →

    • PD

    • (exit_leaf = 08-03)

  • Else, if any plant compliance = C →

    • C

    • (exit_leaf = 08-04)

  • Else →

    • NR

    • (exit_leaf = 08-05)
