    Abstract

    ![CDATA[The University of Western Sydney Research Group for Sustainable Engineering and Technology has developed a treatment flow scheme based on ecotechnologies for wastewater treatment. The low-cost appropriate technology uses a holistic approach on whole-of-waste treatment using biological/ecological methods. The aims of the current study focused on a low-cost technology for wastewater treatment, with the added benefit of solid waste treatment into a useable product that is scaleable for different user-levels and waste input. This would also be an appropriate technology for wastewater management in arid areas and developing world. Results of laboratory tests are presented.]]
