Note that TAI, AIR, CB, COL, and MAC stand for Taipa, Airport, Cross Border, Coloane, and Macau wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), respectively, and I and E for influent and effluent, respectively.

In your answer, include at least the followings.

(1) Comparison with current effluent discharge limits in Macau and in other regions/countries for domestic/municipal/city/household wastewater.

(2) Each WWTP’s effectiveness for organics and nutrients removal.

(3) For plants not removing/treating some parameters well, explain/discuss why.
