Abstract
Wastewater management in Central and Eastern Europe is a choice betwee n two basic alternatives. One is to build a limited number of high eff iciency treatment plants and the other to build a bigger number of pla nts with less efficiency. The paper discusses these options, based on technical and economical considerations. The conclusion is that a step wise development, with chemical precipitation as the first step and bi ological treatment as the second step, in general is the recommendable solution.
