Abstract: On-site wastewater systems are commonly used to treat wastewater in rural areas, and many studies have shown these systems to be efficient at reducing phosphorus concentrations. However, as rural areas urbanize and the density of… read more here.

Abstract: On-site wastewater treatment plants (OSTs) often lack monitoring, resulting in unreliable treatment performance. They thus appear to be a stopgap solution despite their potential contribution to circular water management. Low-maintenance but inaccurate soft sensors are… read more here.

Abstract: Monitoring of a seasonal-use, on-site wastewater disposal system (septic system) in Canada, over a 33-year period from 1988-2021, showed that during recent sampling the groundwater plume had TIN (total inorganic nitrogen) averaging 12.2 mg/L that… read more here.
