Modern industrial society has led to a significant increase in wastewater and waste production, with alarming consequences for the environment and water resources.

To improve quality of life and protect the environment, effective wastewater treatment and the reuse of treated water are essential, contributing to the sustainable management of water resources.

The uncontrolled disposal of waste poses a serious threat to:

• The environment
• Water resources
• Soil
• Public health

Due to their high content of organic nutrients, the untreated discharge of wastewater into water bodies such as seas, lakes, and rivers increases oxygen demand for decomposition by aerobic microorganisms, causing severe pollution and ecosystem degradation.

Waste management is regulated by a strict legal framework concerning the disposal of liquid waste and the protection of water resources.
