Addressing the issue of urban wastewater discharges, in a way that the specific requirements of particular uses are met and the Good Environmental Status (GES) of the system is obtained, while the treatment method and costs are optimal is an important goal. Essential elements for the achievement of the aforementioned goal are: (i) the assessment/calculation of the optimum level of treatment of the effluents discharged in different water bodies; (ii) the selection of the optimum treatment method and infrastructure and; (iii) the possibility to intervene in emergency cases (failure of treatment plants, floods, etc.).
A Modelling Tool (MT) tailored to the conditions of the Drin Basin to serve as a Wastewater and Environment Management Decision Support Tool (Drin WEMDST) was developed and tested through a Pilot activity implemented under the GEF Drin Project.
The Drin WEMDST is applicable to be used by the competent local and national institutions in Albania, North Macedonia, Montenegro and Kosovo, for the identification of the most environmentally appropriate and cost-efficient solutions to address wastewater related problems in ecologically important areas.
The Modelling Tool was tested in the Shkodra city (Albania) to identify the most environmentally appropriate and cost efficient solutions in terms of wastewater treatment methodology and infrastructure to address wastewater related problems. Access the report here
