Guidelines for Sustainable Water Management in Tourism FacilitiesThese guidelines are the joint result and work of the SWAMP project team (SWAMP stands for "Sustainable Water Management and Wastewater Purification in Tourism Facilities").
They include the experiences collected at the SWAMP demonstration sites and knowledge of all the project partners. The intention is to promote an integrated approach to water supply and wastewater treatment, targeted towards reuse of water and nutrients, in tourism facilities at remote locations. The guidelines describe the suggested sanitary techniques and give advise about best solutions, layout and operation. A decision tree helps to select the best choice of a scheme for a given situation.
These guidelines should help owners of tourism facilities to decide in favour of a sustainable water use and give engineers and technicians the know-how they may need in order to implement the most advantageous solutions.
