Wastewater treatment plants - Part 11: General data required
This document specifies data which is necessary for the planning, design, bidding, performance guarantees, construction, start-up and compliance testing of a wastewater treatment plant or parts of it. Differences in wastewater treatment throughout Europe have led to a variety of practices being developed. This document gives fundamental information about the practices; this document has not attempted to specify all available practices.
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.
Stations d’épuration - Partie 11 : Informations générales exigées
Le présent document spécifie les données nécessaires pour la planification, la conception, la proposition,
les garanties de performance, la construction, la mise en service et le contrôle de conformité d’une station
d’épuration des eaux usées ou d’une partie de cette station. Les différences qui existent dans le traitement
des eaux usées d’un pays européen à l’autre ont conduit à la mise au point de pratiques variées. Le présent
document donne des informations de base sur ces pratiques ; il n’est pas destiné à spécifier toutes les
pratiques disponibles.
Čistilne naprave za odpadno vodo - 11. del: Zahtevani splošni podatki

5.2 Provision of loading data
5.2.1 General
Where applicable the following basic data either measured or estimated shall be provided by the client
or his representative, e.g. consulting engineer.
5.2.2 Sewerage system
The data on the sewerage system should include:
— areas served by combined and/or separate sewers;
— proportions of flows and loads from separate and/or combined sewer systems in dry weather
conditions;

— potential to control and balance flows and loads within the sewerage system;
— infiltration flows in dry weather conditions and their seasonal fluctuations (where appropriate);
— septic and corrosive components of the wastewater.
Dry weather conditions and fluctuations in storm water flow will be impacted by climate change. Local
interpretation of average and worst-case climate change scenarios over the design working life of the
sewerage system should be assessed to determine their potential impact.

The data on the population served shall include:
— current population connected to the sewerage system;
— population connected at start-up of the plant;
— population connected at design working life of the principal components and the design horizon for
