Rotating biological contactors or biological discs and septic tank systems followed by anaerobic (upflow) filter or composite anaero­bic (upflow) filter are some of the simple treatment devices relevant to semi-urban and urban fringe areas, rural areas and institutions where localised collection and treatment of sewage could be expedient. Labo­ratory , pilot plant and field scale studies carried out at National Envi­ronmental Engineering Research Institute, Nagpur have clearly esta­blished the feasibility of these systems and brought out the process design criteria and operational aspects. The paper brings forth briefly the salient features of the studies.
