ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is the identification of the current state of sewerage
network in the Prizren Municipality and calculation of the quantity and quality
of wastewaters in the sewerage network prior to discharge in Lumbardhi river.
This is done in order to enable location of various points for the installation of
facilities which shall be used for wastewater treatment in this municipality.
The definition of wastewaters, their quality, the percentage of citizens with
access to sewerage network are some of the essential parameters for projecting
the quantity of facilities and proposing the adequate methods and technology
for the treatment of the wastewaters.
In order to arrive at the definition of these determining parameters for analyses,
three sample points have been chosen for sample taking in the municipality of
Prizren; Zone 1: The area of the southern basin in the new pipe installed DN
1000 / DN 1200 the main collector along the main road to Landovica, Zone 2:
The Old Town in the left bank of the river and Zone 3: The centre of the city in
the main network on the right bank of the river Lumbardhi.
The results taken from these points are compared with European standards
of parameters to determine the pollution level of the watwaters prior their
discharge to the the river.

Keywords: Wastewater, wastewater treatment, treatment facilities.
