Kläranlagen - Teil 11: Erforderliche allgemeine Angaben
Dieses Dokument legt allgemeine Grundlagen für die Planung, Auslegung, Angebotserstellung, Leistungsgarantien, Errichtung, Inbetriebnahme und Abnahmeprüfung von Kläranlagen oder Teilen von Kläranlagen fest. Die Unterschiede bei der Abwasserbehandlung in Europa haben zu einer Vielzahl von Verfahrensweisen geführt. Dieses Dokument enthält grundsätzliche Angaben zu den Verfahrensweisen; es legt jedoch nicht alle Einzelheiten jeder Verfahrensweise fest.

developed. This document gives fundamental information about the systems; this document has not
attempted to specify all available systems. A generic arrangement of wastewater treatment plants is
illustrated below in Figure 1.
