Zusammenfassung der Konferenz

New ISWA Publication: "Status and Trends of Biological Treatment"
The survey published by the ISWA Working Group on Biological Treatment was presented at the Beacon conference in Perugia, on the 11th of May.
The information in the publication is based on a questionnaire made by the Working Group on Biological Treatment. The group's ambition is to up-date the publication regularly and to integrate further countries. Many collaborators and authors were involved in completing the publication and ISWA and the WG would like to thank all of them. Furthermore, ISWA would like to express its gratitude to the City of Vienna and the Association of Austrian Cities and Towns whose suport made this publication.

The publication (2.2 MB) is available free of charge to ISWA-CH members.
