1. Reasons for Choosing
Constructed Wetlands (CWs)
LOCAL CONDITION
CONCLUSION
(5) Lack of skilled
operators
CWs can be satisfactorily operated by local staff after appropriate training.
•The Soroca WWTP project
will include staff training. Even though CWs are easy to operate, this
is considered indispensable and will safeguard proper
operation practices according to the latest know-how.
•By contrast, the
operation of convent. techn., such as AS, poses much
higher challenges to operators. The difficulties not only relate
to compliance with effluent criteria, but also to human safety.
A relatively short training would not be sufficient for
such a task. Typical WWTP operator training programmes in Central
Europe take years, and are targeting professionals only
(electrician, etc.).
