Traditional wastewater treatment plants are fairly large outdoor facilities that have a lot of adverse qualities. Two of the biggest are the sight and smell of the cumbersome, industrial water management systems. Not only are they unpleasant, they require huge infrastructure budgets, requiring investors to not only build the actual facility but to plan out and create the whole infrastructure of getting the wastewater to the WWTP. Simply put, these traditional treatment methods are an ineffective system and although it cleans the wastewater, they’re neither sustainable or economical.
